The minuet KV 5 in F Major by W.A. Mozart is wonderful opportunity to get to know the music of this very influential composer of the Classical period. Mozart composed this piece in 1763 aged 7. The combination of triplets and sixteenth-notes make it also a very valuable rhythmical exercise.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical period. Despite his short life, his rapid pace of composition resulted in more than 800 works of virtually every genre of his time. Many of these compositions are acknowledged as pinnacles of the symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral repertoire. Mozart is among the greatest composers in the history of Western music, with music admired for its melodic beauty, its formal elegance and its richness of harmony and texture.
Born in Salzburg, in the Holy Roman Empire, Mozart showed prodigious ability from his earliest childhood. Already competent on keyboard and violin, he composed from the age of five and performed before European royalty. His father took him on a grand tour of Europe and then three trips to Italy. At 17, Mozart was engaged as a musician at the Salzburg court but grew restless and travelled in search of a better position.
While visiting Vienna in 1781, he was dismissed from his Salzburg position. He chose to stay in Vienna, where he achieved fame but little financial security. During his final years in Vienna, he composed many of his best-known symphonies, concertos, and operas, and portions of the Requiem, which was largely unfinished at the time of his early death at the age of 35. The circumstances of his death are largely uncertain and have thus been much mythologized.

Hello wonderful people! This time I have a special video for you. It‘s the first time on this channel that a piano student of mine is performing her playing. Weina has been taking lessons with me for one year now basically starting to learn the piano after playing the accordion in her childhood. She has two wonderful daughters who also are my students. The whole family loves music very much and is highly engaged in piano playing. For me personally, teaching such students is big fulfillment.
I find Weina‘s progress and diligence amazing and it shows that if you pursue your goals you can achieve a lot even if you start as an adult. Because of her big engagement in her own playing and the playing of her daughters I invited her to play on this channel. In this Clementi Sonatina I am impressed by the flexibility of her finger movements. I explained her very much in detail how the trill works and suggested to use semiquaver triplets. Most of the students have a hard time to bring them into performance tempo but she did it incredibly well.
1. Spiritoso 0:03
2. Un poco adagio 2:43
3. Allegro. 3:36

Muzio Filippo Vincenzo Francesco Saverio Clementi (23 January 1752 – 10 March 1832) was an Italian-born English composer, virtuoso pianist, pedagogue, conductor, music publisher, editor, and piano manufacturer, who was mostly active in England.
Encouraged to study music by his father, he was sponsored as a young composer by Sir Peter Beckford who took him to England to advance his studies. Later, he toured Europe numerous times from his long-standing base in London. It was on one of these occasions, in 1781, that he engaged in a piano competition with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Influenced by Domenico Scarlattis harpsichord school and Haydns classical school and by the stile Galante of Johann Christian Bach and Ignazio Cirri, Clementi developed a fluent and technical legato style, which he passed on to a generation of pianists, including John Field, Johann Baptist Cramer, Ignaz Moscheles, Giacomo Meyerbeer, Friedrich Kalkbrenner, Johann Nepomuk Hummel and Carl Czerny. He was a notable influence on Ludwig van Beethoven and Frédéric Chopin.
Clementi also produced and promoted his own brand of pianos and was a notable music publisher. Because of this activity, many compositions by Clementis contemporaries and earlier artists have stayed in the repertoire. Though the reputation of Clementi was exceeded only by Haydn, Beethoven and Rossini in his day, his popularity languished for much of the 19th and 20th centuries.
