At the time, Mozart��s genius �� recognised at an early age �� could only be explained as being God-given. Wolfgang Amadeus and his sister Maria Anna, older by five years, were admired as being ��Wunderkinder�� (prodigies) on their travels through Western Europe between 1763 and 1766. The piano sonatas ��with a violinaccompaniment�� K. 6��9 were composed in Paris. It is wonderfully fresh a nd varied music. The piano is joined by a violin that adds colour, but not as an equal partner unlike in the later, great violin sonatas (see HN77��80). This music is not only ideally suitable for piano and violin te aching purposes but will also allow musicians who already know ��everything�� to discover some treasures.
