In 2014, Hungarian librarian Balázs Mikusi discovered four pages of Mozart's original score (autograph) of the sonata in Budapest's National Széchényi Library. Dave Brubeck's " Blue Rondo à la Turk" (1959) is not based on or related to the last movement. The theme of the first movement was used by Max Reger in his Variations and Fugue on a Theme by Mozart (1914) for orchestra. The movement ends with alternating A and C ♯ octaves followed by two A-major chords. There is a brief piano restatement of the theme in the middle of the coda. Coda: A forte theme consisting mostly of chords (arpeggiated and not) and octaves.Section E: A forte scale-like theme followed by a modification of section D.This section is in the relative key, F ♯ minor. Section D: A piano continuous sixteenth note melody over a broken-chord accompaniment.Section C: A forte march in octaves over an arpeggiated chord accompaniment.Section B: This section introduces new material in a melody in thirds and eighth notes before varying the A section with a crescendo before falling back to piano by a modification of Section A.Section A: This section, in A minor, consists of a rising sixteenth-note melody followed by a falling eighth note melody over a staccato eighth-note accompaniment.It imitates the sound of Turkish Janissary bands, the music of which was much in vogue at that time. Mozart himself titled the rondo "Alla turca".
