"Divertimenti" were a popular and much loved musical form in the 18th century. Mozart composed a lot of divertimenti. Although the Divertimenti KV 136/137/138 were originally composed as the "Salzburger Symfonies". Due to the Italian influences and emotional depth in the slow movements people thought more of these four-voiced works than just simple "Divertimenti".
The Gaudi Quartet has been an advocate of these divertimenti and early quartets of Mozart for many years. Maybe because we know what Mozart composed later on his career we tend to say that these early works are "percursos of ...". That is a shame!
Werke eines Teenagers: frühe Streichquartette von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
1999 wurde das Gaudi Quartett von jungen enthusiastischen Musikern am Rotterdamer Konservatorium gegründet. Seit gelang es dem Streichquartett mit Freude und Liebe für die Musik Jahr für Jahr mehr Zuhörer zu begeistern. Ihr Debüt bei Aliud gibt das Gaudi String Quartett mit frühen Werken Mozarts. Die ursprünglich als Salzburger Sinfonien titulierte Divertimenti KV 136-138 stehen neben den Streichquartetten Nr. 3 und 4 – Werke des Teenagers Mozart.
