The Flute Quartets

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Jean‐Pierre Rampal & Isaac Stern & Salvatore Accardo & Mstislav Rostropovich

The Flute Quartets are a set of chamber works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, first composed in 1777. Scored for flute with violin, viola and cello, they combine graceful, lyrical wind writing with clear Classical-era textures and were intended for domestic and small-concert performance, illustrating Mozart's facility in intimate chamber music during his adult career.
