Music #121 -Mozart Piano Concerto No.3,7

“Mozart's refinement of the concerto, especially the piano concerto, brought the genre to a new level of sophistication. 

     In 1782, he began a period of concentrated piano concerto writing. Nos. 11-25 that he produced in 1786 became more pianistically virtuosic and symphonically rich.”
