LCCE Performs W.A. Mozart - KV 439b/V - Divertimento for 3 basset horns No. 5 in B flat major

W.A. Mozart - KV 439b/V - Divertimento for 3 basset horns No. 5 in B flat major Mozart’s K. 439b includes 25 movements for wind trio which were played in his day by all different combinations of instruments in whatever order the players wished. The 1812 edition issued by music publisher Simrock grouped the pieces into six divertimenti. The fifth of these, the one on tonight’s program, differs from the others in that it starts with an Adagio, includes a Polonaise and a Romanze, and has only one Minuet movement instead of two. Musicians: Jerome Simas, Basset Horn in F Jeff Anderle, Basset Horn in F Carey Bell, Basset Horn in F Program: Clarinet Party, 29th Season (2021-2022) www.leftcoastensemble.org
