Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote the oboe quartet in F, K-number 370, early in 1771 for the oboist Friedrich Ramm. In an impressive manner, this composition gives expression to the intimacy inherent in Mozart´s chamber music : After the introduction of the theme by the soloist, the supporting voices join in taking an active part in the musical flow of the first movement and converting the oboe´s soliloqui into a dialogue. An expressive, marvellous theme dominates the second movement, the suspense of which does not ease until the composition proceeds to the concluding rondeau - a rondeau almost bursting with its exuberant joie de vivre. This composition certainly ranks with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart´s best-known and most beautiful pieces of work. On the occasion of the Mozart Year 2006 I have ventured to write an arrangement for the saxophone quartet clair-obscur. To a large extent, I have retained the original key and octave positions ; for the parts which include technical difficulties well-tried alternative ossia possibilities are available. Mozart's oboe quartet is a real MUST and represents a great musical challenge to each saxophone quartet. Instrumentation : 4 saxophones (SATBar) KV 370 (368b)

Quartet in F - for Oboe, Violin, Viola and Violoncello. KV 370 (368b). 4 saxophones (SATBar). Partition et parties.

Eulenburg Miniature Scores

With the invention of the saxophone in the early 1840s, transcriptions are useful to present day saxophonists who wish to perform music of various styles and composers, and are thus an important part of the saxophone repertoire. One source of music to transcribe is the wind music of the Classical era. Mozart's Finale from Serenade in B-flat, KV 361 of the early 1780s was originally scored for paired oboes, clarinets, basset horns (now obsolete), and bassoons, plus four horns and double bass. The work was later performed for eight wind players. The Serenade has also been called "Gran Partita", implying music for the outdoors. Since one original intent for the saxophone was to replace less-voluminous woodwinds of French military/marching bands, it seems feasible that saxophones, while also handling well the virtuoso demands of the piece, are a good choice for this transcription. Two objectives were in mind while transcribing the Finale. One was to produce a relatively clean manuscript with a minimum of articulation and dynamic markings so as to allow interpretation by the performers. The articulation markings placed at the beginning of the work are provided only as suggestions. Secondly, the melodies were divided among all parts, rather than a solo featuring just the soprano saxophone. The Finale, a molto allegro in rondo form, should sparkle with cheerful charm and wit. Indoors or outdoors, saxophonists should strive for the lightness and grace so prevalent in much of Mozart' timeless music. Instrumentation : 4 saxophones (SATBar) KV 361

Finale - from "Serenade in B-flat". KV 361. 4 saxophones (SATBar). Partition et parties.

With the new Urtext Primo series, the Wiener Urtext Edition wants to close the gap arising at the point of transition to additional lessons after having studied a piano method. Beginning with a performance level which is outlined by pieces such as Bach's Minuet in G (BWV Anh. 116), Mozart's Minuet in F (KV 5) or Schumann's Wilder Reiter (Op. 68/8), works by three different composers are selected for each volume of the Urtext Primo series, with the aim of offering piano pupils (or even adults who want to resume piano playing) a wide range of repertoire pieces on the basis of which they can enhance their technical and musical skills. The pieces' range of levels of difficulty is relatively narrow so that the volume can be used continuously over a period of about two years. This is what distinguishes the Urtext Primo approach from almost all common anthologies. The selected repertoire takes into account not only pieces of the classic canon of lessons, but also lesser known works which are in no way of less importance for piano lessons. The Urtext Primo volumes are published in the internationally recognised standard of the Wiener Urtext editions. The explanations included in each volume shall help to deepen the knowledge of musical styles, music history and piano playing. A repertoire chart at the end of each volume gives a rough overview of the levels of difficulty of the selected pieces. Volume 1 contains both frequently played educational works by Bach and lesser known pieces by Handel and Scarlatti, Volume 2 compositions by Haydn and Mozart as well as musically and educationally attractive pieces by Cimarosa. Volume 3 (scheduled for publication in summer 2013) contains pieces by Beethoven, Schubert and Hummel, Volume 4 (scheduled for publication in early 2014) works by Schumann, Brahms and Theodor Kirchner. Further volumes are being planned. Instrumentation : piano

Urtext Primo - ein neues Konzept für den Einstieg Vol. 2

'The Abduction from the Seraglio' by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a comic opera in three acts, was extremely popular during the composer's lifetime. In order that this music could also be played by music lovers at home, the best-known and most popular pieces were often arranged for other instruments. Of Mozart's major operas alone, more than 50 arrangements for various instrumentations from around 1800 are known to exist as separate editions. This new edition contains a selection of scenes from the opera Die Entführung aus dem Serail in an arrangement for two flutes or violins. The duets whose author has remained unknown so far were arranged very skilfully and now constitute a selection of the most beautiful melodies from the opera. Up to now, the melodious duets have both high entertainment value and great educational value as they encourage the players' musical imagination and creativity. Instrumentation : 2 flutes (violins) KV 384

Nur wenige Wochen vor seinem Tod vollendete Mozart eines seiner beliebtesten Solokonzerte. Komponiert hatte er es eigens für seinen Freund und Klarinettisten Anton Stadler, der selbst an der Weiterentwicklung des noch in den Kinderschuhen steckenden Instruments feilte. Mit seinem Klarinettenkonzert lieferte Mozart eines der ersten und zugleich nachhaltigsten Werke dieser Gattung. Instrumentation : clarinet and orchestra KV 622
