| Added by magataganm, 31 Jul 2013 Johann Georg Heinrich Backofen (1768– 1830 in Darmstadt) was a German clarinetist and composer. In his time Backofen enjoyed great fame; he was not only known as a composer for, and virtuoso of the clarinet but also played the harp, flute and basset horn. His year of death is not known with certainty; a year of 1839 is found in some documents. Although the Clarinet in B-flat is the most commonly used type of clarinet, the Clarinet in A is mostly used in symphony orchestras. It is longer than the B-flat clarinet and is pitched a half note below and was widely used by both Brahms and Mozart in their chamber music. Since many orchestra pieces are written in keys suitable for violins, the A clarinet "eliminates" the most tricky keys for the B-flat clarinet. This piece was transcribed from the original and as such, is scored for 2 Clarinets in A.
