fuwen 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2020 Mozart had composed numerous Serenades. This particular one K. 522 in F major was funny and interesting. Mozart was writing this Serenade in F major for the audiences of the late 18th century. However, what they found amusing may need some explaining to the 20th century ears. Some of the jokes are obvious whereas others are subtle and can be obvious to the trained musicians. http://www.fuwen.net/index.php/home/classical-music/the-musical-joke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
