With his Septet for clarinet, bassoon, horn, violin, viola, cello and double bass, Beethoven created a key work of chamber music for larger ensembles. He composed the six-movement septet at the same time as his first symphony and premiered the two works together at his first benefit concert in Vienna in April 1800.

This Urtext edition is based on a careful comparison of the autograph and first edition parts and score as well as a set of parts in the Roudnice-Lobkowicz Collection in Prague, which was used for the first time for a scholarly-critical edition. The precise evaluation of the autograph in particular has made it possible to correct numerous discrepancies and accurately reproduce Beethoven's notation.
