    Mozart 12 Duets For Violin And Viola (Breitkopf & Härtel)

    Mozart’s 12 Duets for Violin and Viola (Breitkopf & Härtel) are a shining testament to the composer’s inventive spirit and mastery of chamber music. This 16-page score, published by Breitkopf & Härtel, presents a collection of duos that blend intricate harmonies, playful exchanges, and lyrical melodies—making them a true delight for both performers and audiences. Originally believed to have been composed for two basset horns, these works were later masterfully adapted for violin and viola. The manuscript is famously inscribed “Di Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart mp. Wien den 27t Jullius 1786 untern Kegelschieben” (“...while playing skittles”), giving rise to the affectionate nickname “Kegel-Duette” (Skittles Duets). These duets are widely celebrated for their inventive interplay, expressive character, and the seamless dialog between the two instruments. Whether for study, performance, or appreciation, this edition is an essential addition to any classical musician’s library.
