The varied contents of this volume enable young orchestral players to become acquainted with compositions written by Mozart in his childhood and youth: the earliest of the pieces, a contredanse (K15e) originally written for piano, was composed in London in 1764 (when Mozart was just eight years old), the latest was composed in Paris in 1778. The selection also includes a movement from the Gallimathias musicum, the song ?An die Freude?, early minuets and ballet music, other contredanses, German hymns, and even a movement from a symphony.
