Michael Haydn (1737-1806), younger brother of Josef Haydn, had been in the employ of Colloredo, Archbishop in Salzburg as Court Composer and Leader (Concertmaster) of the court orchestra. In 1783, he was commissioned - or a better word perhaps - ordered by Colloredo to compose a series of six duets for violin and viola. Due to serious illness, he was unable to complete the series. Haydn was concerned that the Archbishop would cancel his fee. Haydn asked his friend Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) to complete the work by writing the remaining two duets. Mozart composed the duets in a few days, in time to meet the Archbishop's timeline. For this reason, all six duets were delivered under Michael Haydn's name. The present edition is the first that reunites the six duets - naturally with the correct attributions. Included in volume 1: 4. Duet in B flat Major K 424 (W.A. Mozart); 5. Sonata Nr. 3 in F Major MH 337 (M. Haydn); 6. Sonata Nr. 4 in E Major MH 338 (M. Haydn).

Written as part of the ?Voix nouvelles? programme at Fondation Royaumont, Limun is dedicated to Barbara Maurer and Melise Mellinger of ensemble recherche who gave the first performance and have since performed it around Europe.
"Limun (lemon in Arabic) is a plant that has the ability to bloom continuously, so you can see blossoms, green fruits and ripe fruits on the same tree at the same time. The title is symbolic. It does not describe the piece, but rather reflects the period of my life of which the piece was written." - Clara Iannotta
