Abstract

Mozart, String Quartet in D minor, K. 421, Menuetto Some time ago I worked with an analysis class on the opening of the Menuetto of the third movement of Mozart's String Quartet in D minor, K. 421 (Ex. 1a). One group analysed the passage as extending the tonic and setting up a cadential dominant, prepared by the `strong' subdominant on the downbeat of bar 9 (Ex. 1b and Fig. 1b). The other group focused on the cadential function of the `dominant' six-four harmony on the downbeat of bar 8 and its five-three resolution in bar 9 (Ex. 1c and Fig. 1c): Music Analysis, 22/i±ii (2003) ß Blackwell Publishing Ltd. 2003.
