Added by alfredo17, 23 Aug 2020 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s 30 divertimenti first appeared 1812 in the German Verlag Simrock as an arrangement for 2 clarinets and bassoon. In a letter of Constanze Mozart to the publisher Johann Anton André in 1800 she mentions that Anton Stadler possessed trios for basset horns composed by Mozart. Unfortunately Mozart’s autograph of such trios got lost. Not earlier than 1937, when in the old castle Seisenburg in Austria the manuscript was found containing these 30 trios in the original instrumentation for 3 basset horns, it became clear that Constanze was right. The so called Seissenburg manuscript is partly inconsistent concerning articulation and is not free from mistakes in writing, and substantial portions of the second and third part are lacking. A reconstruction of the complete divertimenti therefore is necessary. We elaborated this reconstruction based mainly on the Seisenburg manuscript, the old Simrock print and other sources. Sheet central : | 25 Pièces (Cinq divertissements) pour 3 Cors basset (42 sheet music) | |
