All four of Mozart's Flute Quart­ets. The first three were com­pos­ed 1777−78 while in Mann­heim and the fourth one a dec­ade later. The Mann­heim quart­ets were com­mission­ed by a rich ama­teur play­er, they all count as ex­ampl­es of re­fin­ed chamb­er music con­ceiv­ed for skill­ed ama­teur play­ers and dom­estic con­sumpt­ion. While hardly as com­plex a show­case of Moz­art's com­po­sition­al skills as many of his string quart­ets, all four quart­ets abound­ing in gentle wit and good humour, and writt­en not as mini-con­cert­os for flute and string trio but as chamb­er music for equal partners.
