    Mozart. A little quiz to see if everybody has done their homework: what is the traditional Affekt of G major?

    • Idyllic; pastoral; rustic
      Listening to this and hearing Mozart’s mood of a languid summer afternoon is now kind of heartbreaking given our current context. But, thank you for posting.

    • Very gentle and peaceful . . . lovely.

    • The affekt quality (mentioned in last vidchat, taken from traditional lists) is “grace”.

      Absolutely awful! Two dudes from the 1970’ies grinding away on hillbilly fiddles some of Mozarts worst compostions!
      This is Mozart when at peak!
