Invention on Mozart's 11-tone Surprise
for Flute and Bb Clarinet
Daniel Dorff (composer)
Instrumentation
- Flute
- Clarinet in Bb
“Hidden in plain sight,” the last movement of Mozart’s Symphony No. 40 sneaks in a development section that begins with a jarring 11-tone parody of the movement’s main theme. Dorff’s oddly charming two-part invention parodies the parody, transforming Mozart’s surprise into a series of variants occasionally teasing at other familiar repertoire.
