In the Classical period, symphonies in G minor almost always used four horns, two in G and two in B ♭ alto. [2] Another convention of G minor symphonies observed in Mozart's No. 25 and Mozart's No. 40 was the choice of E-flat major , the subdominant of the relative major B ♭ , for the slow movement, with other examples including Joseph ...
The Piano Sonata No. 2 was written during a time where the sonata lost its overpowering dominance. While the sonatas of Beethoven and Mozart comprised a considerable portion of their compositional output, this is not true of the next generation of composers: Franz Liszt only wrote one sonata among his dozens of instrumental compositions, Robert Schumann seven (eight if including the Fantasie ...

In music, a sonata (/ s ə ˈ n ɑː t ə /; pl. sonate) [a] literally means a piece played as opposed to a cantata (Latin and Italian cantare, "to sing"), a piece sung. [1]: 17 The term evolved through the history of music, designating a variety of forms until the Classical era, when it took on increasing importance.
The sonata for violin and piano in G minor, L. 140, was written in 1917. It was the composer's last major composition and is notable for its brevity; a typical performance lasts about 13 minutes. The premiere took place on 5 May 1917, the violin part played by Gaston Poulet, with Debussy himself at the piano. It was his last public performance.
Another possibility is both subject groups in the recapitulation going through multiple keys. In the first movement of Schubert's Symphony No. 8, the first subject group begins in the tonic B minor but modulates to E minor and then to F ♯ minor. The second subject group starts in the mediant D major before modulating to the parallel tonic B ...
The Piano Sonata No. 2 in G minor, Op. 22 was composed by Robert Schumann from 1830 to 1834. [1] [a] It was one of his three full-length attempts at the sonata genre, the other completed ones being the Piano Sonata No. 1 in F sharp minor (Op. 11) and the Piano Sonata No. 3 in F minor (Op. 14). Because it was published only in 1839, three years ...
Its relative minor is E-flat minor (or enharmonically D-sharp minor). Its parallel minor, G-flat minor, is usually replaced by F-sharp minor, since G-flat minor's two double-flats make it generally impractical to use. Its direct enharmonic equivalent, F-sharp major, contains six sharps. The G-flat major scale is:
