04._hartmann.pdfIn this article we examine in Theme and Variations set of the Sonatas for Piano and Violin by W. A. Mozart (1756-1791) the relations between Schemata’s interchange, interpolation and inter-functionality. For this, we analyze the schematic composition of each movement, paying attention to the substitutions that the composer makes. In the theoretical basis we dialogue with the authors who discuss the relationship between Topic and Schemata. The work is structured as follows: conceptualization of Schemata, brief discussion about the problem of relationship between Schemata and Topic, analysis of selected works and final considerations. It is concluded that the functionality of each Schema, concept implied by Gjerdingen, is the way to understand the logic that regulates the substitutions observed in the works.
