Piano Concertos no. 20, K. 466 & no. 27, K. 595

A concerto is a large-scale composition that sets one or more solo instruments in dynamic dialogue with an orchestra. Its core idea is contrast—between soloist and tutti—and the dramatic negotiation of power, color, and thematic responsibility.

Classical music is the notated art-music tradition of Europe and its global descendants, characterized by durable forms, carefully codified harmony and counterpoint, and a literate score-based practice.
