Piano Sonatas nos. 15-18
Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Mikhail Pletnev
Piano Sonatas Nos. 15–18 are a set of piano sonatas by Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1788–1789. They exemplify Mozart's mature Classical piano style, featuring clear sonata-form structures, lyrical slow movements, varied keyboard textures and increased technical demands compared with his earlier works, and they occupy a late stage in his keyboard output that reflects developments in his approach to form and keyboard writing.
