Ludwig van Beethoven
Trio C major op. 87 · Variations C major WoO 28 for 2 Oboes and English Horn
Both of these works for two oboes and cor anglais, which Beethoven composed in the 1790s, belong to the lighter genre of serenades and divertimentos. He might have written them in response to a commission or have been inspired by the prevailing popularity of this delicate combination of instruments.
Likewise, with the Variations WoO 28 on the famous theme “La ci darem la mano” by Mozart, he made a contribution of his own to the arrangements of operatic melodies for wind ensembles that were so popular at the time. Our edition follows the recently published volume in the Beethoven Complete Edition and thus reflects the latest scholarly research on Beethoven.
About the Composer
Ludwig van Beethoven
No composer has had as profound and sustained an influence on immediately following generations to the present day as Beethoven. His instrumental music, especially his symphonies, served as touchstones for symphonic composition throughout the nineteenth century. The extraordinarily high standard of his music and his relative independence as a freelance composer have led to his being characterized as the greatest composer of all time.
