Description:
Mozart composed the two "Lodronische Nachtmusiken" for open-air performances on Countess Antonia Lodron's name day in June 1776 and 1777. Their summery, festive character is unmistakable. For Alfred Einstein, these two divertimenti were "among the purest, most cheerful, most delightful, most perfect that ever took musical form".
For both works, Mozart chose two horns, two violins, viola and bass. In the second Lodronische Nachtmusik, the Divertimento in B flat, K. 287, however, the first violin emerges from this sextet line-up with an exceptionally virtuoso soloist role, from the varied first movement to the last movement with its almost ironic recitative and the rushing passage on the folk song "D' Bäurin hat d' Katz verlorn".
Mozart himself played the first violin in the 1777 performance and later commented: "Everything looked great there. I played as if I were the greatest violinist in all of Europe."
