Mozart's A Musical Joke, 1st Movement for 6 part Cello Ensemble.
Mozart's musical joke, picking on the bad composers of his day. I have left the voicing of the chords intact, so there are a few places that are "thick" in orchestration. This was intentional by Mozart. The effect is even more comical with a cello ensemble. This first Movement is marked Allegro.
Originally for string quartet and 2 horns. Each part is almost a direct transcription from the original. Part 1: Violin 1. Part 2: Violin 2. Part 3: Viola. Part 4: Cello. Part 5 and 6: Horn parts.
Designed for a multi-level ensemble. Parts 5 and 6 are beginner level, Parts 2, 3, and 4 are intermediate, and Part 1 is Advanced
