Mozart: Adagio K.411 Composed in 1785, the Adagio K.411 is a gem; the work has a duration of just 3-4 minutes, yet is filled with variety, and offers ensembles young and old the chance to explore the language of a mature Mozart. The Adagio was originally composed for two clarinets and three basset horns; the original key and range are maintained in this transcription for three clarinets and two bass clarinets.
