| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中山大學 === 音樂學系研究所 === 91 === Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756~1791) is one of the most important composers in the Classic period. In his early age, he used to be a virtuoso, played across Europe such as England, France, and Italy, etc. Therefore Mozart was influenced by different styles of music. He then took these different music styles into a refined and harmonious integration. Mozart not only had great dedication in operas, but also in the sonata form with “double exposition” which he used in the concertos. We can see this progressing from the piano concertos that Mozart composed through his whole life. Although Mozart’s violin concertos belong to his early work, they are the bridge between the concertos with ritornello form in the Baroque period and the sonata form with double exposition in the Classic period.
In addition to the preface, this thesis consists of three chapters. The First Chapter mainly summarizes the life of Mozart, dividing into three periods—the early period (1756~1779), Salzburg period (1773~1782), and Vienna period (1782~1791). The Second Chapter discusses the background of the Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 4, including the Mozart as a violinist, the interaction between Mozart and other violinists in his time , and the differences between the form of this violin concerto, ritornello form and the sonata form with ”double exposition”. The Third Chapter concentrates on the analysis of the concerto, and the tempo, dynamics, fingerings, and bowings, and the way of playing the decorative notes. In this article, the cadenza written by Joachim was adopted. The writer of this thesis sincerely hopes this article can make some attribution to the persons who are interested in Mozart’s music and play the Mozart’s violin concertos.
