Klaviertrio Es-dur KV 498 "Kegelstatt-Trio" / Sonate für Fagott und Violoncello B-dur KV 292

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed the Kegelstatt-Trio, KV 498, in 1786. Dedicated to his pupil Franziska von Jacquin, the work was written for a domestic setting and is notable for its unusual instrumentation of clarinet, viola, and piano. It reflects the intimate, conversational style characteristic of Mozart's late chamber music, balancing technical playfulness with deep harmonic sophistication.

The Sonata for Bassoon and Cello, KV 292, is widely considered an early work often associated with Mozart’s time in Munich. This release by the Kammermusikvereinigung der Berliner Philharmoniker, issued on the Dacapo label, serves as a testament to the mid-20th-century tradition of German ensemble performance. The recording captures the technical precision and tonal clarity for which the Berlin Philharmonic’s chamber offshoots were highly regarded during this period.
