Question

A cello concerto in this key begins with a quiet dotted pickup for horns and violas. Haydn used this key for a symphony whose fourth-movement cembalo (“CHEM-buh-loh”) solo was likely written for himself. Mozart used this key for a seven-movement piece for 12 winds and double bass, his Tenth Serenade. This is the key of a cello concerto whose slow movement was posthumously replaced (-5[1])with passages from three of its composer’s (-5[1])other cello concertos. This is the key of Haydn’s Symphony No. 98, Mozart’s Gran Partita, and a cello (-5[1])concerto arranged by Friedrich Grützmacher (10[1])(“GROOTS-mah-ker”), Boccherini’s Ninth. (10[1]-5[1])This major key’s tonic is the most common note in which trumpets and (10[1])clarinets are pitched. (10[11])Classical pieces (-5[1])in this key often tune the timpani (10[1])to F, (10[1])which is this key’s dominant. (10[1])For 10 points, (10[2])name this major (10[1])key with two flats.
