Three Divertimenti, K.136-138 for string quartet (parts) by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Edited by Friedrich Herrmann. Published by C.F. Peters
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) was one of the most prominent composers of the Classical period and is often considered to be one of the greatest composers of Western art music. A noted child prodigy, he excelled in all genres. His music is revered for its beauty, clarity, balance, and transparency, underpinned by sophisticated craftsmanship.
- Mozart composed his delightful, breezy Three Divertimenti, K.136, 137, and 138 in Salzburg in winter 1772, when he was 16 years old, probably for a salon setting. They are modeled after the Italian, three-movement sinfonia form (fast-slow-fast), and are in fact sometimes known as his ''Salzburg Symphonies''. Parts only. Intermediate-advanced level, Grade 4.
