- Franz Xaver Wolfgang Mozart (26 July 1791 - 29 July 1844), also known as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Jr., was the youngest child of six born to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and his wife Constanze. He was the younger of his parents' two surviving children. He was a composer, pianist, conductor, and teacher from the late classical period whose musical style was of an early Romanticism, heavily influenced by his father's mature style.

I love this. It makes me imagine Mozart family saiying "goodbye" to Universe...

more like 'hello'. Their music is still alive today, more than ever.
I can,t imagine how this composer could manage the pressure he felt when creating his music in view who his father was....
He is more than his father !
It's simply marvelous!! I can hear nuances of his father throughout, yet there's a romantic essence to it. Thank you for uploading - it is enormously appreciated.
Wolfgang casts a subtle shadow on this work yet there is a feeling of breaking away from it in the sense that the piano style of playing is more "modern" and the running passages in the strings section are considerably written with a more modern approach. In fact, there is a foreshadowing of an early Schubertian style here and there, and similarities with a Beethoven string quartet isn't far off either. What's truly impressive is Franz Xaver's mastery of the form and structure wherein both his father, Haydn and Beethoven excelled. Furthermore, the manner of interplay between the instruments is indicative of very good craftsmanship, the kind that you cannot possibly ignore or belittle.
I wonder if F. Xaver ever wrote more works belonging to this class of music ensemble, and if he did, I strongly believe that they should be given the exposure they rightfully deserve.
What is astonishing to me is that this quartet predates both piano concertos, but its personality stands out sharper and louder than in either of them. And, yes, you hear Schubert even when Schubert was still a baby....
Franz Xavier Mozart write this when he was only 9 years old. Just like his father !
Franz Xaver, boy, I love your music so much 💖
Me too
Franz Xaver Wlfgang Mozart , nació sólo cinco meses antes de que su famoso padre , el genio de Salzburgo muriera, eso no impidió que recibiera todo el legado de su maravilloso padre !!

Interesting perspective to Classical music in a romantic era! This I always wondered how WA Mozart would’ve transitioned if he were to live longer to the day? With his son, it is more clear, somewhat.
Fine composition
I played the piano part of the Trout quintet and this piece reminds me of Schubert in a few places.
I love the work of FXM
He also wrote some fine piano concerto's-parts of which, particularly in the slow movements, have a charm and quality not unlike his father's.
Nice
Boa!
Did Hummel take theme of the third movement for his Grande Serenade in C major?
17;20
0:59 ... 8:57 Adagio … Schubert ...
Salieri did such an amazing job with this kid. Not much talent, but thanks to the instruction of a gifted educator such as Signor Antonio, he became a very solid professional.
You believe, what the film "Amadeus" told you about Salieri. But there are examples of Salieri´s operas which are quite good. Watch it again. What I can hear in this piece is the influence of Hummel concerning the piano technique.
"c. 1800?" It was composed much later, not at the age 9.
The fact that his opus 1, the piano quartet in G minor, was printed in Vienna with Steiner as early as 1802 was, of course, a major success for the 11 year old composer !
After some reserach I found that it was released ca 1805 by Magasin de l'imprimerie chymique. A great work by young Franz Xaver.
a 14-year Mozart old wrote it! Today's 14 year olds can't tie their shoes! Mein Gott!
Hey! I can play Mozarts concerto (one of them kv216), bach, etc etc im 14...

Are you sure it's not in G major? @KuhlauDilfeng4
It's definitely G minor because the score has 2 flats in the 1st movement (relative minor of B flat major is G Minor) and ends distinctively on a G minor chord. Incidentally, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote a piano quartet in G minor (K478). It's also quite common for many compositions of this period to be scored in a minor key, yet end in the major - Schubert in particular did this often - ie., his piano impromptu in A flat starts out in the minor but finishes in the major; also the piano impromptu in C minor ends in C major.
K 478 also ends in G major. It was the model for this piece, and it shows not only in the keys of the movements, but in several places within the first two movements. F. X. keeps G major as the key of the finale, but he attempts to depart from his model by writing variations rather than a rondo.
