Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart – Gran Partita KV 361 Mozart’s Serenade in B flat major is better known as Gran Partita. Mozart composed this work in 1781 for two oboes, two clarinets, two basset horns, two bassoons, four horns and a double bass. The serenade impresses with its extraordinary length and, above all, with its wonderful musical lines, which opens up an experience of heavenly expanses for each and every listener.
