Quintet F-major for Horn, Flute or Oboe, Violin, Viola and Basso RWV B6 arr of Giovanni Punto
The source for this quintet is a print of the publishing house Sieber, Paris. It was published approximately 1789 under the composer name Giovanni Punto. It was the second of three quintets. Fortunately, the print names Rosetti as the composer in very small letters.
The composition was arranged by Giovanni Punto. This quintet is better known in the instrumentation for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon and English horn in which the English horn was often replaced by a horn and a wind quintet therefore arose.
The autograph of this composition (Murray B6) is kept in the university library Augsburg. The original composition is in e flat major. It was not printed to life times of Rosetti. Since arranging was a component of the performance practice and music culture then and by such a famous musician as Punto was, the music is today not less essential.
