Mozart Sonata Allegro

The first movement of Mozart's projected Second Clarinet Quintet :
The 'fragment' that is the basis of this work, had been known about
for many years and was always considered a trial run for the great
KV 581. But recent dating has shown the two pages of manuscript date
from after the Clarinet Quintet. The distinguished Mozart scholar,
Timothy Jones has proved this to be the beginning of a response to
the popularity of KV 581. It was only as a result of his early death
that the work remained incomplete. Tim has completed the work using
his deep knowledge of late Mozart and we have now a very important
new addition to the clarinet quintet repertoire. In this edition
Donald Thompson has provided a very playable and useful piano
reduction.
