Andante in C for Keyboard (Mozart)

(Redirected from K. 1a)

The Andante in C is a keyboard work, K. 1a, written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1761 and found in Nannerl's Music Book. It is not just Mozart's first keyboard work, but his first (or so believed) composition. It is an extremely short piece (just 20 seconds long), likely notated by his father, Leopold Mozart, due to Wolfgang's being just 6 years old at the time.

It is normally performed on the harpsichord and is in the key of C. The piece opens with a lively one bar phrase, which is repeated piano (quietly). This is done again with a second, modified phrase – before it gains a deeper, unrepeated phrase and ends.
