The publisher André, who had set his sights on Mozart’s works, signed a publishing contract with Mozart’s widow, Constanze, after his death. He hired Alois Senefelder, who had invented an innovative printing press, and the composer Franz Griesner, publishing as many as 20 works by 1800. This orchestral version of the “Gran Partita” is one of them. For the publication, Greisner arranged the wind ensemble masterpiece “Gran Partita” for the standard orchestral instrumentation of around 1800 (string ensemble, 1 flute, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons), reworking it into a new “Concerto-Symphony.” Conductor Geber must be quite fond of this arrangement. He recorded it once (for Sony) in 2020 while serving as a professor at the Mozarteum, but apparently his interpretation has deepened, leading to a re-recording just five years later. He also conducted the same piece in Berlin in October 2025.\nWhile it was common at the time to omit or shorten parts of a piece during arrangement, Greisner arranged this work almost exactly as written, with the exception of cutting a portion of the minuet trio. He transposed the basset horn and horn parts from the original score to flutes and strings, and by using each wind instrument as a solo instrument to highlight their timbre while adding the resonance of the strings, he succeeded in creating a richer palette without compromising the original’s charm. This demonstrates that Greisner had a deep understanding of Mozart’s style and respected the original composition.\nThe choice to pair this with a work by Cannabich is typical of Geibel. Mozart, who visited Mannheim with his mother from 1777 to 1778, met the music director Cannabich and was deeply impressed by him. The court orchestra included 24 violinists as well as a full wind section, including clarinets. While this piece adopts the form of a double concerto featuring two solo violins, the wind instruments also play a prominent role, much like the “concertos for various instruments” frequently composed at the Dresden court in the mid-18th century. The music, in the Gallant style, is so full of elegant melodies that it would not be an exaggeration to call it a model for Mozart’s Concerto-Symphony K. 364.\n(1\/2)\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BR Klassik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52490345775393,"sku":"4589538831004","price":20.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538831004.jpg?v=1774486326","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-it\/products\/4589538831004","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
