On record 35074 are two of Mozart's most remarkable pieces, the Rondo K.511 and Gigue K.374. The rondo is unique in the chromaticism and expressive intensity of the exquisitely contoured principal melody and its recurring variants; the gigue equally so in its rhythmic intricacy. Number 35076 has the magnificent Fantasia K.396; the fine Sonata K.332, which has another superb finale; the engaging "small sonata for beginners," K.545; and two unfamiliar pieces: the Variations K.354, of which variations 4, 8 and 10 are outstanding.
