Hello,
Can someone tell me exactly where in the Mozart Clarinet Concerto K622 I would find the "exposition"? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it begins in measure 57 and continues through the downbeat of measure 75.
Thanks

the term 'exposition' is part of three analysis terms in a sonata form piece, ie. exposition, development and recapitulation. Therefore, it basically starts at the beginning and continues until the second part, the development. In short, in the exposition the themes are stated, in the development they are developed, both by actually changing them and by changing the key and in the recapitulation, the themes are repeated (ie. recap.) (generally in the tonic key) The actual bar numbers can be argued about, and as I don't have the score in front of me, I'll leave that to someone else.

I forgot to mention that I'm looking for this information concerning only the first movement.
Sorry !

All that I wrote before was only regarding the first movement becuase it's the only one in sonata form.

In a concerto in the classic period the exposition is a "double" exposition, that is, the orchestra states the two themes first and then the solo instrument repeats the two themes. The true exposition of the first movement of the clarinet concerto begins with the very first note of the orchestra...this is Not an introduction. The second half of the double exposition, that is, the repeat of the exposition, begins with the first note of the solo clarinet. The comments about exposition, development and recapitulation in an earlier response are absolutely correct.
