Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 9, K. 271, is nicknamed 'Jeunehomme' due to a misreading; it was actually dedicated to a French female virtuoso soloist.

With his Ninth Piano Concerto, Mozart elevated the piano concerto genre to new levels, both structurally and emotionally, introducing deep feelings into what was previously a purely gallant solo concerto.
