Fantasia No. 2 (Mozart)

Fantasy No. 2 in C minor, K. 396/385f (German: Fragment einer Fantasie in c) is a fragment of a violin sonata composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Vienna in August or September 1782.

Bar 1, featuring triplet sixty-fourth notes (hemidemisemiquavers)

Its tempo marking is adagio. The fragment consists of 27 bars, the violin part entering at bar 23.

Maximilian Stadler later composed a "completion" of the work for solo piano which is 70 bars long and ends in C major. A copy of the piece in Stadler's hand contains a dedication to Constanze Mozart.[1] It is this version which is usually performed and recorded. "The authorship of the stormy development section is unclear; it has not been determined whether Stadler had Mozart's sketch for this section which has since been lost or it was completely his own creation."

gollark: You need more formal systems to organize people at scale, and we need scale.
gollark: Many companies doing things will have more people than that in one department.
