German Dance KV 605 No. 3

Mozart wrote Three German Dances for strings, wind instruments, timpani and bells in 1791. Otto Wolf selected the third dance from this work, whose original diction suggested an arrangement for recorder choir, with the posthorn part being replaced by a soprano metallophone. This makes a work accessible not only to young recorder players, but also to players and listeners alike, who are sure to enjoy its pointed rendition.
