In this video section, I want to look at one of Mozart’s themes in detail, to see how analysing the foreground of the music leads on to analysing deeper levels of structure.

Here's the theme we are going to analyse. It's the very beginning of the last movement of Mozart’s sonata, K. 570 in B flat, written in 1789.
