Which famous movement from Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 11, often called the 'Turkish March,' is a well-known example of a rondo?

Show answer

Rondo alla Turca

Mozart composed this piece to imitate the percussive sound of Turkish Janissary bands, a style that was highly fashionable in 18th-century Vienna. To achieve this effect on a keyboard, some pianos of the era even included a special 'Turkish stop' pedal that would ring bells or strike the soundboard.
