String Quintet, K614 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
1. Composer – Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
2. Song Type – 1st Movement (Allegro di molto)
3. Song Form - Sonata Form
4. Key Signature – Eb Major
5. Time Signature – Compound Duple Time. (6/8)
Exposition (1-86)
First Subject(1-19)
- The first subject begins in E flat major by the viola with descending answering phrases from the violins.
Bridge (20-38)
- The bridge passage is to modulate to the dominant in preparation for the second subject.
- The repeated quavers and trills is used imitatively, first with violas, then with violins.
Second Subject (39-53)
- The first violin begins the second subject in the dominant (Bb Major)
- Second subject repeated by the cello in upper register, letting viola play lower notes.
Codetta(54-86)
- In Bb Major
- In the final two bars, a slight harmonic twist with the reintroduction of an Ab, in order to quickly return to the opening in Eb major.
Development
- Begins with the last fragment of the exposition, moves a bit into C minor, then goes to Ab major in bar 90.
- Here the first violin introduces an “athletic figure” with leaps, and arpeggios
- A quick modulation to G minor, the athletic violin returns.
- From 106 onwards, many question and answer sequences occur
- In bar 123, reappearance of the last bars of the exposition occur.
Recapitulation
First Subject(125-143)
- The first subject is restated, with a few embellishments in the violins descending line
Bridge (144-164)
- Very Similar to the bridge in the Exposition
- No modulation to the dominant
Second Subject (39-53)
- The second subject is presented twice in Eb major
- First Viola, then First Violin
Codetta(54-86)
- Similar to previous Codetta
- Changes in harmony to keep it in the same key.
- Cello taking up the trill motif for the first time in the piece.
- Last 5 bars of Codetta are identical to the end of the Exposition.
Coda
- Using the repeated quaver and trill motive from the first subject
- Rounds off firmly on the tonic
