Johann Schobert Sonata (Mozart Concerto 2 - )

Johann Schobert (1720?-1767) Piano Sonata No.2. W. A. Mozart used this opening movement of Schobert’s Sonata (Andante poco Allegro) for the middle movement of his “Second“ Piano Concerto in B flat, K. 39. The tempo, based on repeated triplets, seems perhaps a precursor to the slow movement of Piano Concerto No. 21 K. 467, which also features repeated triplets. Played here is the first movement of Schobert’s Opus 17, no. 2, in F Major. Piano soloist is Brigitte Haudebourg.
