String Quintet No. 3 (Mozart)

This would not be the last time that a great pair of C major/G minor works of the same form would be published in close proximity and assigned consecutive Köchel numbers.

Indeed, it is the largest "sonata-allegro" movement before Beethoven,[4] usually taking about a quarter of an hour to perform.

The opening theme of Schubert's work retained many of the characteristics of Mozart's opening theme, such as decorative turns, irregular phrase lengths, and rising staccato arpeggios (the latter appear only in Schubert's recapitulation).
