Sinfonia Concertante in Eb for Violin and Viola, K. 364

for Violin, Viola and Orchestra. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. There is no reference to the origin, occasion or a performance of the Sinfonia concertante in E-flat for Violin, Viola and Orchestra, K. 364 (320d) because in all probability it was composed in Salzburg (presumably in summer or early autumn, 1779): Mozart seems to have had no reason to write about it. It was apparently in Paris that he first had the occasion of giving the genre of the ; Symphonie concertante his special attention. On April 5, 1778, he wrote to his father: ; Now I shall write a sinfonie concertante for flute wendling, oboe Ramm, Punto horn, and Ritter bassoon. Even more discouraging must have been the fact that he had similardifficulties in Paris in having the works performed as he had in Mannheim. After the organizier of the Concerts spirituels, Le Gros, contrary to his promise, did not include the mentioned ; sinfonie concertante in his program. Mozart had no reason to compose any more for this genre in Paris. After Mozart's return to Salzburg, he might have been eager to introduce the new genre there, especially since adequate instrumentalists were available. Also the choice of the solo instruments (violin and viola) in the work presented here was probably influenced by the popularity of this instrumental combination in Salzburg at that time. - Urtext of the New Mozart Edition - Full score & parts (BA4900), study score format 22. 5 x 16. 5cm (TP176), violin, viola and piano reduction (BA4900-90) available for sale/ Répertoire / Orchestre

L'année Mozart, Thomas Zehetmair et Ruth Kilius a demandé à Heinz Holliger pour une pièce encore frappante de la Sinfonia concertante de Mozart qui n'avait souvent été effectuée sous sa direction par eux. Le résultat, cependant, est un cycle de trois volets indépendant composé de pièces très différentes. Le premier a été tissé exclusivement de flottant harmoniques, la deuxième est une danse tourbillonnante sauvage, tandis que la troisième se condense dans un choral de six parties dans lequel chaque joueur a chanter une troisième voix en plus de jouer le double s'arrête sur son instrument à cordes. / Violon Et Alto
