I think what Mozart is trying to say here is "Take that Bach!". But seriously this piece is awesome (I accually mean awesome too). This piece seems to follow a format Mozart used in the later part of life. For example the final movement of Symph. 41 also introduces many subjects thoughout the piece and then put them in a super fugue towards the end of the piece. That is done here starting at about 7:52 and it is sublime. Maybe not meant for this world.
@toogoodbw Bach's polyphony sounds a lot more natural. I don't think Mozart surpassed him by any means. Funny anecdote: Mozart's wife was obsessed with Bach's fugures, and Mozart wrote some piano ones, and she still liked Bach's better. That had to have messed with his head lol. Also, Mozart threw a hissy fit when the cantor of Thomas-Schule told him that they preserved Bach's motets but didn't have the complete scores. He sounds like a jealous obsessed man more than a genius =p
@PoopShitMario I would be pretty pissed too if I found some guys that say that they preserve the themes of various works by Mozart but not the complete score, I want it all, damit! I dont know what you mean by jealous and obsessed man, jealous and obsessed with what?
This unbelievable piece of music is unbelievable hard to learn. Everybody, who can play it even in this tempo, is masterkiller! :-) Great performance.
Wow!!! What magnificence and grandeur, what depth and drama! The way Mozart ties the Andante into the concluding theme truly rouses the spirit. That climax and finale gets me every time. Was there an instrument Mozart couldn't compose for? Nay, nay, and thrice nay!

@toogoodbw Well, I don't know about the "Take that, Bach!", but this piece is other-worldly.

@faleru Because YOU specifically idealize and envy Mozart. My point still stands about Mozart feeling that way towards Bach.
