Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791), "Haffner" Serenade, KV 250, mvt. 3 (Menuetto)

This eight-movement work was commissioned for the wedding of a member of the Haffner family. In fact, most serenades during this time were "occasional music," written for an event or celebration. Can you think of any other Serenades and what they were written for?
