Johannes Sperger ( 1750 - 1812)
6 Divertimenti for 2 oboes, 2 horns and bassoon (SWV D I/1 -6)
- first edition-
The 6 Divertimenti edited here for the first time originate from the quite extensive estate of Sperger, kept in the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern library. The work catalogue, made by Sperger himself, regards these works as a collection. The pieces were composed in 1777 and were sent to the Comte of Széchényi. The individual works have no title or a common heading in the autograph. 2 oboes are noted in the autograph, the catalogue however wrotes "Clarinetto Parthia oder Oboe Parthia", so that 2 clarinets would also be possible.
