Concerto for Violin and Orchestra no. 3 in G major, K. 216

1. Allegro
2. Adagio
3. Rondeau: Allegro

Mozart's violin concerto K. 216 is to be made aware at once of the greater profundity of this well-loved work, of the greater maturity of its slow movement, of the effectiveness of its apparently undemonstrative quiet close, in place of a barnstorming tutti blatantly soliciting applause. The motive which launches the Allegro is simultaneously galant and insistent, and with its characteristic alternation ol forte and piano is markedly reminiscent of an aria for Aminta in lirepastore, the drammapermusica composed in April of the same year. In the Adagio, while the muted orchestral violins keep up their murmuring and the lower instruments a serenade-like pizzicato, the solo violin soars dreamily above them, with a sweetness unknown before this. The Rondeau (Allegro), with a cheerful theme in 3/8, breaks off for an Andante serenade, complete with a guitar-like accompaniment. This leads on into a light-hearted folksong theme, with an unmistakable resemblance to Willem von Nassau. The soft conclusion, seeming to fade away as the young composer is overcome by melancholy, is strangely touching.
