Divertimenti: K. 136, 137 and 138
Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Folkwang Kammerorchester Essen & Johannes Klumpp
Divertimenti K.136–K.138 are a set of three divertimenti by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1772. Scored for string ensemble, they display early Classical characteristics—balanced melodies, transparent contrapuntal textures and concise multi-movement forms—and occupy a formative place in Mozart's output as works that bridge his youthful experiments and his subsequent mature chamber writing.
