Title-page:

Zwey Trio, das erste für zwo Violinen und Bass, das zweyte für 1. Querflöte, 1.Violine und Bass;
bey welchen beyden aber die eine von den Oberstimmen auch auf dem FlĂĽgel gespielet werden kan


Two Trios, the first for 2 violins and bass, the second for 1 flute, 1 violin and bass;
in both of which, one of the upper parts may alternatively be played on the keyboard

Composition date 1748 from cpebach.org preface.

Note. Date 1751 from Wotquenne (p.58-59) may be ca. (given in ().) This may or may not have been Wotquenne's intention.- Schissel

Since it's hardly clear from anything else here: "Zwey Trio" refers to H.578 and 579 (in C minor) (W.161/2 & 1), not to 578 alone.

Incidentally: the 1751 edition of H.579 / W.161/1 (the other trio published in 1751), one gathers, has a programmatic preface, giving it a nickname of Sanguine and Melancholic.
