Franz Schubert composed his Rondo in B minor for violin and piano, D 895 in 1826 for the twenty-year-old Czech violinist Josef Slavik (who also commissioned Schubert's Fantasy in C, D 934 in 1827). It was the first piece for violin and piano that Schubert had composed for almost a decade. It was first performed by Slavík with the pianist Karl Maria von Bocklet in 1827. Artaria published the score in April 1827 as "Rondo brilliant, Op. 70".^[1] The Rondo is the only one of Schubert's six violin-piano works to reach print during his lifetime.

Structure[]

The composition starts with an introductory "Andante", followed by an "Allegro" (A-B-A-C-A). The ensuing coda contains reminiscences of the theme of the "Andante" and of the "B" episode of the "Allegro". It ends in a section marked "Più mosso" in the score, in B major.
