Description

Rondo alla turca constitutes the last (third) movement of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 11 in A major, K. 331 (300i), most likely composed in Vienna or Salzburg around 1783. The last movement, "Alla turca," popularly known as the "Turkish March," is often heard on its own and is one of Mozart's best-known piano pieces. Mozart himself titled the rondo "Alla turca." It imitates the sound of Turkish Janissary bands, the music of which was much in vogue at that time.
