With its two oboes, two clarinets, two basset horns (clarinets 3 and 4), two bassoons, four horns and double bass, the „Gran Partita“ is not only unique in Mozart`s oeuvre but the largest work of the classic period scored for solo instruments. Although by definition a divertimento, it stands alongside the great genres of instrumental music - sonata, string quartet and symphony - with a richness of tone-colour and a density of texture unheard of in the wind ensemble repertoire of its time. Our edition presents the work for the first time with the Urtext from the New Mozart Edition.
