Mozart Serenades Intro Text

DG celebrates rediscovery of early Mozart Serenade &ldquo;A Very Little Night Music&rdquo; with three world premiere releases
The Serenade in C major K. 648, also known as Serenade in C or &lsquo;Ganz kleine Nachtmusik&rsquo; (&lsquo;A Very Little Night Music&rsquo;), is a composition for 2 violins and bass, attributed to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The work was probably composed by him as a teenager between 1766 and 1769. It is preserved in a copy made around 1780, which was found in the music library of the Leipzig City Library. The piece was included in the new edition of the K&ouml;chel catalogue of his works in 2024 and premiered on 19 September 2024 at the presentation of the revised catalogue in Salzburg. The experts at the Mozarteum Salzburg consider Mozart's authorship to be &lsquo;very likely&rsquo;.
Deutsche Grammophon is proud to present three studio recordings of this work as world premiere releases.&nbsp;The first chamber version, featuring Haruna Shinoyama and Neža Klinar (violins) with Philipp Comploi (cello) and Florian Birsak (harpsichord), was pre-released on 4 October 2024. Additionally, the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, conducted by Herbert Blomstedt, has recorded an orchestral version, available from 18 October 2024.&nbsp;

DG celebrates rediscovery of early Mozart Serenade “A Very Little Night Music” with three world premiere releases

Mozart Serenade in C 

Berlin, Monday 7 October 2024 &ndash; Deutsche Grammophon celebrates the rediscovery of an early Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart work by digitally releasing three world premiere recordings, each a different version of the 12-minute composition.
Referred to as &ldquo;A Very Little Night Music&rdquo;, the Serenade in C K 648 for two violins and bass is a previously unknown piece of music that was discovered by researchers of the International Mozarteum Foundation&nbsp;in the Carl Ferdinand Becker collection of the Municipal Music Library in Leipzig, Germany, while compiling the latest edition of the K&ouml;chel catalogue, the authoritative survey of Mozart&rsquo;s oeuvre. Composed by Mozart when he was in his early teens, the piece dates back to the mid to late 1760s and consists of seven miniature movements for string trio. It was introduced to the public on 19 September 2024 by the International Mozarteum Foundation Salzburg which oversaw the research and authentification under the direction of Dr. Ulrich Leisinger.
Deutsche Grammophon is proud to present three studio recordings of this work as world premiere releases. As the reception of Mozart&rsquo;s Serenade in C K 648 by the music community and audience is still at an early stage, the juxtaposition of the versions invites comparison and dialogue as well as inspiration for hundreds of interpretations that are yet to come on live concert stages and in recording studios alike. The global release date across all digital platforms will be on 11 October 2024 for the two chamber versions and on 18 October 2024 for the orchestra version.
The arguably most authentic rendition has been realized in the Viennese Hall of the International Mozarteum Foundation by Leonhard Baumgartner, Margarita Pochebut (violins), Svenja Dose (double bass) and Oscar Jockel (harpsichord). Both already sought-after violinists are still in their teenage years &ndash; like Mozart when he composed and performed the work for his sister &ndash; and the ensemble decided to collaborate with bass and harpsichord in the continuo section. This project was realized with the kind support of the Stretton Society. In parallel to the high-end audio recording, Deutsche Grammophon produced a performance video which will be premiered on 12 October 2024 on STAGE+ as a promotional free transmission, preceding the <a href="https://www.stage-plus.com/de/video/live_concert_9HKNCPA3DTN66PBIEHFJCDPH">Mozart recital broadcast of celebrated pianist Grigory Sokolov</a>.
An equally notable chamber recording was realized by Unitel with the ensemble that gave the first live performance of the rediscovered work in Salzburg on 19 September 2024 in the context of the presentation of the new K&ouml;chel catalogue, featuring Haruna Shinoyama, Neža Klinar (violins), Philipp Comploi (cello) and Florian Birsak (cembalo). This version was pre-released already this past Friday, 4 October 2024, on Apple Music and Apple Music Classical.

Rainer Heneis, CEO International Mozarteum Foundation, says: &ldquo;The huge amount of attention that the publication of the new Mozart piece has attracted worldwide shows the unbroken fascination with the greatest composer of all time. Thanks to the outstanding work of our colleagues at the scientific competence centre, this newly discovered composition could be verified as part of their ongoing research on the new K&ouml;chel catalogue. The current world premiere recordings of the different interpretations of the Serenade in C KV 648 by Deutsche Grammophon are a great step towards quickly establishing &lsquo;Ganz Kleine Nachtmusik&rsquo; in the standard repertoire of the music industry for longevity.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
Conductor Herbert Blomstedt says: &ldquo;It is an unexpected gift that at the age of 97 was able to take on the first recording of an early work by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The fact that the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig was the most compelling musical partner for this is because I have a long history and close partnership with the orchestra and because the Mozart manuscript was discovered in Leipzig. Performing it symphonically with a choral string section instead of using a pure chamber music setup with individual violins and bass required some thought, but in the end, it led to a very convincing result. Ultimately, we are following in the tradition of the sister serenade &lsquo;Eine Kleine Nachtmusik&rsquo;, which has also established itself as a symphonic work. We are pleased to have provided a small initial impetus for what will surely become a long history of interpretations for Mozart's Serenade in C K. 648.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
Prof. Andreas Schulz, General Director, Gewandhausorchester says: &ldquo;The discovery of the Mozart Serenade in the Carl Ferdinand Becker Collection shows once again how important Leipzig is and always has been for music. The musician, publisher and scholar C.F. Becker was only able to integrate this valuable transcription into his library on the basis of this enormous radiance of Leipzig as a city of music.&nbsp; We are very proud that the Gewandhausorchester, under the direction of our honorary conductor Herbert Blomstedt, has premiered a chamber orchestra version of this newly discovered work.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
Dr. Clemens Trautmann, President Deutsche Grammophon, says: &ldquo;Deutsche Grammophon recordings have always been influential in establishing references and encouraging performances of newly composed or rediscovered musical works. In this respect, we feel privileged to release a set of world premiere recordings of Mozart&rsquo;s so-called &ldquo;A Very Little Night Music&rdquo;, in close collaboration with our partners International Mozarteum Foundation, The Stretton Society, Gewandhausorchester Leipzig and Unitel, to whom I would like to extend heartfelt thanks. From teenage talent as vibrant as Leonhard Baumgartner and Margarita Pochebut to musical icons such as Herbert Blomstedt at age 97, the passion of all musicians and partners involved has been phenomenal and a fitting tribute to Mozart&rsquo;s genius, which is already palpable in this early work.&rdquo;
