Flute Mozart Concerto D Major
The flute concerto in D Major by Mozart is one of the most well known and often played pieces in the repertoire. It's energetic technique and beautiful melodic lines make this piece timeless and much loved by flutists. It's frequently heard at concerto competitions along with Mozart's other flute concerto, the one in G Major. Most flute students learn this lovely piece early in their careers and become enamored with it for the rest of their lives. That's how I feel about it! It was my contest solo my sophomore year in high school. I hardly did it justice, of course, but then again, Mozart is something that is played for a lifetime. The piece is in the traditional three-movement format, fast, slow, fast. The first movement is played most frequently, which is typical for all concerti. The third movement shouldn't be overlooked, though, if you're looking for a concerto movement that isn't heard so frequently. The second movement is heavenly with its beauty, again, so typical of Mozart.
