Charles Rosen's career is founded as firmly on his lucid thinking and writing about music as on his piano playing, but the two have always been closely allied. His recordings have given persuasive weight to the ideas that he has pursued in his writing, particularly about 18th- and 20th-century composers. And his series at the 92nd Street Y -- a 45-minute lecture followed, after a short break, by a full recital -- have given listeners something extra to mull over, beyond his choice of repertory and whether the performances of this or that work matched their expectations.

Mr. Rosen's series this season, "Mozart Within History," has celebrated the 250th anniversary of Mozart's birth by discussing and performing his music in the context of his predecessors, contemporaries and successors. The final concert, on Sunday afternoon, looked at how Mozart's shadow fell on Schubert, Chopin and Liszt.

The lecture mostly took a different turn, exploring the evolution of Mozart's reputation, from his own time to ours. It has, Mr. Rosen asserted, come full circle: Mozart was regarded as brilliant but difficult when he was alive; in the 19th century he became a model of almost mystical perfection; and in the 20th century he was again thought brilliant but difficult, with difficulty now considered a virtue instead of a vice. Along the way Mr. Rosen touched on other topics, most notably the eroticism in "Così Fan Tutte" and "Don Giovanni."

The concert explored the musical side of Mozart's evolving influence. Mr. Rosen played Schubert's Sonata in E flat (D. 568) because its thematic contours, as well as its weight, coloration and balances, have a more clearly Mozartean accent than most of Schubert's later sonatas. In the first two movements, a listener could agree; by the Minuet, and through the finale, though, Schubert was fully on his own ground.

Mr. Rosen made an unusual decision here. He transposed the second movement from its published G minor to E flat minor, arguing that the change restored the key relationship found in Schubert's original version of the work, a relationship that changed when Schubert, at his publisher's request, transposed both movements and added new material to the sonata. Mr. Rosen's version worked nicely enough, but it was a move only a pianist with his scholarly authority could get away with.

David Bowlin, a violinist, and Fred Sherry, the cellist, joined Mr. Rosen for a finely balanced and suitably intense account of Mozart's Trio in E (K. 542), chosen mainly because Chopin is known to have played it. But the Chopin that Mr. Rosen performed -- the Nocturnes in G minor (Op. 37, No. 1) and D flat (Op. 27, No. 2) -- owed less to the trio than to Mozart's Rondo in A minor (K. 511), with which Mr. Rosen prefaced them.
