Mozart - Serenade No. 11 in E-flat major, K. 375 (Sextet Version - Parts)

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Serenade No. 11 in E-flat minor, K. 375 for two Oboes, two Clarinets, two Horns, and two Bassoons.

The Serenade in E-flat, K.375, exists in two versions, one for two clarinets, two horns and two bassoons, and another for the same forces plus two oboes, forming an octet. From Mozart himself we know a fair amount about the occasion that led to the first, six-instrument version of this work and about its early performances. Written for the sister-in-law of the court painter Hickl, it probably originated toward the end of September or the beginning of October in 1781 and was first performed on 15 October, the name-day of St. Theresa. Please note, this product SKU only includes parts, a full score can be ordered seperately.
