He mentioned it in his own list of works as the first of  \"6 Violin Solo mit Begleitung einer Viola“ (\"6 Violin Solos with the Accompainment of a Viola\").\r\nThe genius godfather of the \"Wiener Klassik“ created within the first bars a whole world of music - and in between a joyful Allegro and a simple but refined Menuet he placed a surprisingly dark and touching Adagio in F minor. This Duo is technically and musically demanding for the violin player whereas the viola has a more accompanying function. For what purpose were these Duos originally written? In particular for the music of the court of Esterhazy, but most certainly also for music lovers, for musical entertainment at social gatherings and for skilled violinists who enjoyed Haydn's artistry.\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eKarl Stamitz\u003c\/strong\u003e had other intentions: he composed an extremely virtuosic piece for his own use as the soloist of a rare instrument: the Viola d`amore. A concert performance on tour could easily be staged with help of an attentive violinist. It is hard to believe, that this skilled and imaginative composer wrote only one single piece for this distinctive combination of instruments. Possibly numerous works were lost due to the fact they were not printed and existed only as hand written copies.

Due to illness Haydn could only finish 4 Duos. His good friend Mozart jumped in and composed the last two in his place - his famous duos for violin and viola. Combined on this album is the first Duo of Michael Haydn with the first Duo of W. A. Mozart. The violin part of Michael Haydn`s work is virtuosic and was most certainly a challenge for the Archbishop who played the violin himself. The duo is very entertaining to listen to. Mozart however achieved something truly exceptional: with a knowing hand he wrote a masterpiece full of spirit, wit and emotion. In this work, both instruments have equal roles while at the same time each maintains their individual character.\r\n\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eValerie Rubin\u003c\/strong\u003e - violin\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eMartin Timphus\u003c\/strong\u003e - viola d'amore, viola","brand":"HR Recordings","offers":[{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56740198318404,"sku":"E218HR-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56740198351172,"sku":"E218HR-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56740198383940,"sku":"E218HR-15","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56740198416708,"sku":"E218HR-16","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 512 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56740198449476,"sku":"E218HR-21","price":35.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 24 Bit \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56740198482244,"sku":"E218HR-22","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 32 Bit \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56740198515012,"sku":"E218HR-35","price":28.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57340018622788,"sku":"E218HR-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/E218HR.jpg?v=1790589281","url":"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/products\/e218hr-haydn-mozart-stamitz-duos","provider":"NativeDSD Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
