Mozart Works for Violin(s) and Orchestra
On August 21, 1772 the Salzburg archbishop Colloredo appointed the 16-year-old Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart as concert master in his orchestra, at an annual salary of 150 gulden. During the following years, Mozart wrote the majority of his concertante works for violin and orchestra, beginning with the Violin Concerto in B flat, K.207 (1773) and the Concertone for two violins, oboe, cello and orchestra, K.190 (1774). These were followed in 1775 by another four violin concertos (in D, K.211; in G, K.216; in D, K.218; and in A, K.219); and a few years later, during the summer or early autumn of 1779, he wrote the final work, his Sinfonia Concertante for violin and viola, K.364.
