J.M. Molter was a court musician and Kapellmeister in Germany during the
18th century. The Concertinos were written for performances at the court. The
combination of 2 treble instruments, 2 horns, and continuo was undoubtably
popular with composer and benefactor as he composed eight pieces for similar
forces. The Concertino in C was composed for two Chalumeaux. This edition
offers parts for Bb Clarinet and Basset Horn (or 2 Clarinets in Bb.)
Molter's compositional style is a mixture of German Rococo and Stile
Galant. His use of horns in chamber music is compelling and forward-looking.
The Concertino's texture alternates between trio sonata and concerto grosso.
In this edition, figured bass is provided as well as a realized cembalo part.
