Joseph Fiala
Quintetto G major for Oboe or Flute, Violin, 2 Violas and Violoncello
Joseph Fiala was born 1748 in Lochowitz (Lochovice) in Bohemia, after completing his education in Prague on the oboe and the cello he came 1774 Wallerstein in southern Germany, where he worked until 1777 as an oboist of the Prince of Oettingen-Wallerstein. Then he went to Munich and later to Salzburg to the court orchestra of the Archbishop. From about 1783, he played for health reasons no oboe, but moved to the gamba and the cello. In 1785 he moved to Vienna to a little later in Russia for some time a court orchestra of Count Orlov-Cesmenskij build. From 1792 to his death in 1816 he worked at the court of Prince zu Fürstenberg in Donaueschingen.
His 3 Quintets in F major (ROM 383), Bb major (ROM 384) and G major (ROM 385) have as a source voice transcripts from the Prague National library. Certainly you were in Fiala's active time as an oboist, ie before 1785, composed. they may belong to the 6 quintets identical occupation, which the Viennese music publisher Traeg has displayed in 1799th Today, however, these are no longer detectable.
