@@fjdyyh2542 Neither. This is not a pasticcio, a composition "in the style of". It's the work of another (elder) composer, I'm too lazy to google who it was, like a sonata for piano solo or pianoforte and violin, I'm too lazy again to google what exactly it was, which the young Mozart arranged as a piano concerto. Mozarts first four "piano concertos" are such arrangements of works of other composers. So it's quite normal that this doesn't "sound like Mozart"...

I agree about the difficulty. There are various famous concertos without a number, for example by Schumann. Well, there are a lot of well-known ones with numbers 1 and 2. But in this concept, with options 1-5, the complexity increases sharply.

Interesting test even for musicians. I mean, I definitely don't need to "guess" Tchaikovsky 1, Chopin or Brahms 2, especially when you put the movements from the beginning, but there were some truly difficult guesses, like Mendelssohn or Kabalevsky. Even pieces like Prokofiev 5 or Liszt 2 are known to an educated ear but difficult to immediately locate in the memory. You can make it even more interesting in case you decide to incorporate famous pieces like Tchaikovsky 1, to put it really from some kind of obscure theme or a weird transition - then it would be embarrassing even to much educated audiences to not immediately guess what's the piece. 😅

It is in a piano concerto that it is really difficult to guess the composer if you have not heard it before.
