Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Gran Partita
The Serenade in B flat major K. 361/370a by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the so-called Gran Partita (this appellation is not the composer’s), is inarguably one of the greatest works in the wind instrument repertoire. It adheres to the Viennese tradition of Harmoniemusik-music for wind ensembles intended to add lustre to aristocratic events and banquets-yet transcends the genre by its instrumentation (two basset-horns, two horns and a double bass were added to the traditional octet), its monumental proportions (seven movements) and the richness of its musical inventiveness.
