Violin Sonatas

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Ludwig van Beethoven & Oleg Kagan & Sviatoslav Richter

Violin Sonatas is a collection of works for violin and keyboard by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed between 1778 and 1788. The sonatas exhibit classical-period textures ranging from gallant, song-like melodies to more contrapuntal and virtuosic passages, reflecting Mozart's development from his Salzburg period toward his mature Viennese style and their place in the standard violin-and-keyboard repertoire.
