Serenade no. 10 “Gran Partita”

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & German Wind Soloists

Serenade No. 10 in B-flat major, K. 361/370a, known as the Gran Partita, is a serenade by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed in 1781–1782. Scored for an expanded wind ensemble including pairs of oboes, clarinets and bassoons alongside basset horns, horns and contrabass, it employs late-Classical forms that alternate lyrical slow movements with spirited outer movements, features rich wind textures and stands as one of Mozart's most substantial works for winds, occupying a distinctive place in the development of wind chamber repertoire.
