This presentation examines the analysis and performance of Mozart’s chamber music from the perspective of social interplay. A long tradition of comparing chamber music (especially string quartets) to artful conversation reflects the intricate sense of interaction among the instrumental parts. Klorman imagines chamber compositions as a game in which each instrumental part may be understood as an individual player or character, capable of competing with, seducing, deceiving, or outwitting the others as the music unfolds.
