Mozart: “Kegelstatt” Trio for Clarinet, Viola and Piano

Trio 498, with experience in both orchestral and chamber music, first collaborated while working at the Westminster School. Program:F. Lessel – Allegro from Grand Trio (1805)R. Schumann – Marchenerzahlungen (Fairytales) (1853)W. Lutoslawski – 5 Dance Preludes (1955)W. A. Mozart – Kegelstatt Trio (1786) Trio 498, with experience in both orchestral and chamber music, first collaborated while at Westminster School, playing Mozart’s Kegelbahn Trio in June 2019.
Their concerts include performances with renowned orchestras and the promotion of musical activities in hospitals and cultural centers.
In addition to existing repertoire, the Trio is also engaged in exploring new musical possibilities through various transcriptions.
The unusual combination of instruments takes its roots from Mozart’s ‘Trio Kegelstatt’ from 1786.
In fact, the nickname refers more accurately to the Duetti for 12 wind instruments K 487, to which Mozart added on his autograph: “Vienna, July 27, 1786 playing bowling” (‘Kegeln’ in German).
The chronoligical proximity of the Trio (Vienna, August 5, 1786 and appearing under the number ‘498’ in Köchel’s catalog) adds credibility to the musical figures used here, associated with the playful image of a heavy ball rolling toward the bowling pin.
Mozart’s Trio Kegelstatt was first performed at the home of the musical Jacquin family, who were among Mozart’s closest friends in Vienna.
For this first performance, Mozart played the viola part, with Franziska Jacquin at the piano and the distinguished Anton Stadler on clarinet.
From the context of the piece’s origins, one can infer that Mozart approached the composition and performance of this trio with a sense of fun and friendship – evidence of Goethe’s words, who compared chamber music to “a conversation between friends.”

The trio invites you to “join the conversation” at the October 13 concert, which will feature music by Polish composers Lutoslawski and Franciszek Lessel, alongside Mozart and Schumann.
