W.A. Mozart Flute Duos Opus 75
Mozart did not compose a great deal for flute in terms of chamber music or flute concertos. Most of his compositions were not published until after his death. The Flute Duos, opus 75, are listed in the Koechel Catalogue as K. Anhang(appendix) 156 & 157. The Koechel Catalogue also states that all six duets in two volumes (heard on this CD) were originally published in 1799 by Andres in Offenbach, Germany, a town outside of Frankfurt. No arranger is listed. The second publication of these flute duos was in 1800 by Simrock in Bonn. The third publication of the Mozart Flute Duos was around 1880 by Zimmermann in Liepzig. It is possible that Johann Christian Strumpf might have been the arranger of these Flute Duos, Opus 75, since Koechel writes that Simrock’s next published piece included twelve duos (based on Mozart’s opera Tito) arranged by Strumpf. Therefore one might assume that Strumpf arranged flute duos, opus 75 as well.
The first duo in Volume 1 is based on musical material from Mozart’s Sonata for Violin and Piano, K. 374f; the second duo is based on music from Mozart’s Piano Trio, K. 564; the third duo is based on the music from Mozart’s Sonata for Violin and Piano , K. 454. In Volume 2 of the Flute Duos, opus 75, the fourth flute duo is based on musical material from Mozart’s Sonata for Violin and Piano, K. 374e; the fifth flute duo is based on music from Mozart’s Piano Trio, K. 548; the sixth flute duo is based on material from Mozart’s Piano Trio, K. 496. **material for the program notes were kindly provided by flutist and scholar, Dr. John Bailey.**
