URTEXT EDITION [more...]

This is an urtext/critical/scholarly/scientific edition (or a simple re-engraving). Any commentary or critical apparatus, if protected by copyright, should not be included in the scan(s) available here. This edition was published by Bärenreiter in Germany over 25 years ago and is in the public domain in its country of origin.

In Canada, new editions/re-engravings of public domain works (when not including new original material) should be in the public domain due to failing to meet the threshold of originality. In most European Union countries, these editions (except new original material) are generally protected for no more than 25 years from publication (30 years in Poland). In the United States, copyright can only apply to new creative work, and the re-engraving of a public domain piece (not including new additions of creative material) should not qualify for a new copyright, despite copyright claims (which properly would only apply to new material).

You may need to check the publication date and details of the work's first publication in order to determine the work's copyright status, especially for the United States.

Navigation etc.

Divertimento in this case was indeed Mozart's own title, entered into his workbook in 27 September 1788. (This was not always the case with works of his now called Divertimenti, the title sometimes being later added by others. In this case the work was first published as a string trio ("Gran Trio per Violino, Viola e Basso, Opus 19") (by Artaria and Imbault); one could of course imagine it having been the other way around...)

Oddly, in November 1801 AMZ announced from Breitkopf 3 string trios by Mozart, a "2nd" opus of his trios; arrangements, one suspects, mostly at least (perhaps also containing this work as well), but otherwise of what? (AMZ November 1801 Intelligenzblatt, p.11.) (Of course, piano trios might have been what were meant- one often sees this typo. Even though the typo usually takes the form string trios for piano trios, not "viol., A. et violoncelle" as here.)

(Edit: maybe it contained an early publication and arrangement- from 2 violins/bass to violin, viola, cello? - of Mozart's "other" string trio, K.266? There seems to be a Breitkopf publication of that work listed by Worldcat, but -- not sure of date, plate, etc., must check. Might be from the late 19th c. collected edition. That said, the 1801 date places the one noted above in the first "complete" edition of Mozart's works, published by Breitkopf between 1797 and 1804 or so. )
