A very familiar piece composed by a very young Mozart. This improver level score has specified fingering to assist the player. The minuet is a dance with three beats to the bar although when learnt it is best played with a one in a bar feel. Mozart's example is of a simply structured binary form movement although when the form was later expanded it became important as one of the movements incorporated into the Classical symphony. The K numbers associated with Mozart scores refers to the Köchel or catalogue numbers that describe the chronologically order of his compositions. This catalogue was created some fifty years after the composers death and K2 understandably is his second published work composed when he was 6.
