Talk:Viola sonata

Untitled
There are numerous violin and viola duos from the Classical era, the best known being Mozart's K423 and 424 pair, around which the legend was, that Michael Haydn in ill health could not complete a set of six such duos he was writing for Bishop Hieronymus Colloredo*, and Colloredo still demanding the works from Haydn - perhaps believing the illness faked - Mozart stepped in (so the legend goes; this was doubted early last century if not earlier for several reasons, for instance that no such set of six duos was published under Haydn's name- but might be confirmed or denied by more recent scholarship) and completed the set for him.

However, this sort of thing might better go, on a string duo page.

* a major force in Mozart's life one way or another, usually described as other, that is to say, negatively...

A request, not for a new page but for within pages, would be some commentary on the balances between instruments on various pages (e.g. on cello sonata, what sort of trouble does - to choose the most common pairing - pairing cello and piano cause? Is the complaint against Brahms' first sonata valid, and why?) This is the sort of thing an instrumentalist, I'd say, can write a deal better than I can, together just perhaps with a theorist of sound ;). I used to play viola but that doesn't signify.
