Music for a Saturday

Mozart's Clarinet Concerto was written in October, 1791 for clarinetist Anton Stadler - a month-and-a-half before Mozart's death on December 5.  It appears that Mozart was never paid for this piece, since his death records show that Stadler still owed him 500 florins ($100).  Enjoy this one on Mozart:
