The society raised money to provide pensions to widows and orphans of Viennese musicians. Its concerts were regular occurrences on the Viennese social calendar and Mozart composed and performed for them, even though he was not a member, something he would regret right before his death at the age of 35. This quintet premiered at a society concert on December 22, 1789, in between two halves of a cantata by Vincenzo Righini. The clarinetist was Anton Stadler, one of the first virtuosos on the instrument and Mozart’s close personal friend. Mozart wrote all of his major clarinet works— this one, the Kegelstatt Trio, and the Clarinet Concerto—with Stadler’s playing in mind. Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center The clarinet was a relatively new instrument in Mozart’s day yet he expertly tapped into the instrument’s unique singing quality.

Carl Czerny) Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Salzburg, 1756 – Vienna, 1791) This piano concerto is one of Mozart’s most famous. It has demonstrated remarkable staying power, remaining popular from its premiere on February 11, 1785 through the 19th century (when some of his other music went out of fashion) to today. It received a glowing review from one of Mozart’s toughest critics—his father—at the premiere. In a letter to Mozart’s sister, his father described the evening’s success after Mozart barely finished the piece in time: “On Friday evening at six o'clock we went to [Mozart’s] first subscription concert, where there were many important people… The concert was incomparable, the orchestra excellent… There was a new excellent piano concerto by Wolfgang, which was still being copied when we arrived. Your brother didn’t even have time to play through the Rondo because he had to oversee the copying.” The rushed timeline is corroborated by Mozart’s catalogue, where he recorded completing the piece the day before the premiere.
