Nicola Mestrino (1748-1789) was employed for a time in the Esterházy court orchestra under the direction of Joseph Haydn. He later settled in Paris and became one of the most celebrated violin virtuosos of the period. He was also a composer, and one of his most successful works was this set of three violin duets which was published in no fewer than four contemporary editions in Paris, Vienna, Amsterdam and the German city of Offenbach. In these duets consisting of either three or two movements, the two violins have absolutely equal roles.

Nicola Mestrino (1748-1789) wirkte eine Zeit lang im Orchester am Hof Esterházy unter der Leitung von Joseph Haydn. Später zog er nach Paris und wurde einer der bekanntesten Geigenvirtuosen seiner Epoche. Daneben komponierte er auch, eines seiner erfolgreichsten Werke sind die drei Violinduette, die damals nicht weniger als vier Ausgaben in Paris, Wien, Amsterdam und Offenbach (D) erlebten. Diese vier Ausgaben bilden die Quellen der Edition im neuesten Band der URTEXT-Serie, die von István Kertész, dem ersten Geiger des weltbekannten Festetics-Streichquartett s, gefertigt wurde. In den zwei- und dreisätzigen Duette haben die beiden Violinen vollkommen gleichberechtigte Rolleninne.
