Rondo in B-flat for Violin and Orchestra (Mozart)

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Rondo in B-flat for Violin and Orchestra, K. 269/261a, was likely composed between 1775 and 1777 as a replacement finale for the K. 207. Like the Adagio in E and Rondo in C, the Rondo in B-flat was requested by Italian violinist Antonio Brunetti. The work is scored for solo violin, two oboes, two horns and strings.
