Eine kleine Nachtmusik / Serenata Notturna / Lodron Night Music

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Capella Istropolitana & Wolfgang Sobotka

This compilation album of orchestral serenades by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart collects works composed in the late 18th century, chiefly around 1787. The music exemplifies Classical-era serenade writing—light scoring for strings and small orchestra, clear homophonic textures, balanced phrase structures and tuneful melodies—and sits within Mozart's mature period, reflecting his output in both instrumental and stage music and the broader role of the serenade in late 18th-century musical life.
