Description:
The triple 'Hafner-Musique'
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed the Hafner Symphony K. 385 in the summer of 1782 on the occasion of the nobilization of his friend and patron Sigmund Hafner. In addition to the well-known movements, this version (A) also contains the march K. 408/2 (385a) and possibly a second minuet that has not survived. The work Mozart referred to as 'Hafner=Musique' was thus initially undoubtedly a serenade. In early 1783, Mozart reduced the Hafner music to a four-movement symphony for his Academy. The work first appeared in print in this form in 1785 (version B). For another performance, Mozart supplemented the symphony with flute and clarinet parts. In this version (C) the work was published by André in Offenbach in 1805 and became well known. The 'Breitkopf Urtext' edition uses the autographs for K. 385 and K. 408/2 (385a) as primary sources. It makes it possible for the first time to perform all three versions of Hafner's music, since the variants of version A and B can be conveniently accessed through footnote notes and small print.
