[Footnote 18: Two bars are added as an extension of the conclusion as in the minuet of the Quintet in C major (515 K.).] [Footnote 19: There are groups of seven bars in the minuet of the later Quartet in F major (590 K.), and of five bars in the trio.] [Footnote 20: This movement has been scored by Beethoven; the original is in Artaria's possession.] [Footnote 21: A siciliana occurs among the variations in a sonata for pianoforte and violin (377 K., 3), simpler and shorter than the one under consideration, and altogether omitting the transition to the major key. The same form is the basis of the rondo to the pianoforte Trio in G major (496 K.), but freely carried out. The siliciana is employed, according to old usage, for the slow middle movements of an early Sonata in F major (280 K.), and of the pianoforte Concerto in A major (414 K.).] [Footnote 22: The Hadyn quartets, written in 1787 for the King of Prussia, are well known.] [Footnote 23: From 1787 to 1797 Boccherini drew a considerable pension from Frederick William II., for which he had to furnish annually some quartets and quintets, compositions much loved and often played by the King (Reichardt, Musik. Monatsschr., p. 17. Mus. Ztg., 1805, p. 232. Picquot, Not. sur L. Boccherini, pp. 16, 112).] [Footnote 24: In March, 1788, Mozart announced (Wien. Ztg., 1788, No. 27 Anh.) three new quintets--these two, and the one arranged in C minor--at four ducats a copy.] [Footnote 25: Wien. Ztg., May 18, 1793, p. 1462.] [Footnote 26: So also in the unfinished sketches of a number of qointet movements (79.84 Anh., K.).] [Footnote 27: Picquot, Not. sur L. Boccherini, pp. 19, 28, 123] [Footnote 28: Prince Grassalcovicz reduced his full band to a "Harmoniemusik" (Jahrb. d. Tonk., 1796, p. 77).] [Footnote 29: Trûbensee and Wendt as oboists, the brothers Stadler as clarinetists, Rub and Eisen hornists, Kautzner and Druben bassoonists (Cramer, Magaz. Mus., I., p. 1400. Musik. Korresp., 1790, p. 31).] [Footnote 30: Mozart arranged the "Entfuhrung" for wind instruments (Vol. II., p. 210).] [Footnote 31: A. M. Z., XV., p. 668 (Schletterer, Reichardt, I., p. 327).] [Footnote 32: Mozart praised Albert's good "Harmoniemusik" to his father from Munich (October 3, 1777). A special wind band was engaged for the table music at the Augarten (Jahrb. d. Tonk., 1796, p. 78).] [Footnote 33: Nicolai speaks highly of the "Harmoniemusik," which was performed every evening before the main guard at the court (Reise, IV., p. 558).] [Footnote 34: Carpani, Le Haydine, p. 81. Gyrowetz, Biogr., p. 5.] [Footnote 35: Musik. Korr., 1791, p. 366.] [Footnote 36: The serenata has two minuets, the second of which is especially Haydnlike in character. Perhaps they were intended to be omitted in the rearrangement, for in Mozart's autograph score they are only copied and inserted.] [Footnote 37: The beginning of an eight-part allegro is among the sketches.]
