Mozart KV 448 and KV 426 together
on: June 02, 2007, 07:37:01 AM
Hi,
I've noticed that one version of the Mozart Sonata for two pianos in
D major has the Fuge in C minor at the end.
Why that?

you are quite distracting to me.  perhaps some kind of similar personality...because if i was you - i'd be asking the same question.  maybe we are twins? 

i will try to find the answer -unless you are asking nils.  perhaps this is the best way to find out accurate information the fastest.

Since these two pieces are the only two pianos pieces by Mozart (except for the Concerto in E-flat K 365) they have often been published together. We initially published them here together in one single pdf file but later decided to split them up since this is more appropriate. It seems however as if we forgot to remove the old file (which has now been done).

this may be the only time nils has been wrong - but mozart wrote a heck of a lot more than two piano pieces.  (sorry nils)  anyways 'carry on.'

Feels nice doesn't it   ::)

I didn't know they often have been published together, but I know of a
Larghetto and Allegro in Es (D# major) for two pianos,
consisting of about 223 bars, after bar 109 being finished by Mr. Stadler.

Just for you to know:
there are 7 fairly unknown piano pieces by Mozart,
sadly enough originally unfinished but
luckily enough  :) finished by my grandfather.

was he given any credit for it - or was it surreptitious?

He published them in the "Ichthys Verlag, Stuttgart" :-)

can you explain further.  this 'ichthy's verlag.'  i thought verlag was verlag.  how did 'ichthy' get involved.  was that his last name?  so yours is arglemann ichthy?  i don't know about you - but being a twin is really something sometimes. ;D

The "Ichthys" Edition publishes his pieces. No apostrophy, I think "Ichthys" is
latin and means fish.
Ah, but I see how I wrote it so it could get misunderstood  ;D
