When Rossini discovered these quartets that he wrote when he was 12 he described them as : Six   dreadful   sonatas   composed   by   me   at   the   country   estate   of   my   friend   Agostino   Triossi,   when   I   was   at   a   most   infantile   age,   not   even   having   taken   a   lesson   in   accompaniment,   the   whole   composed   and   copied   out   in   three   days.     These   delightful   sonate   a   quattro   are   the   earliest   of   his   works   to   have   survived   and   they   have   been   in   the   repertoire   ever   since   he   wrote   them.       They   were   first   published   in   an   arrangement   for   string   quartet.       A   version   for   wind   quartet   followed   in   1828/9.      This arrangement is for Wind Quintet with the addition of an oboe part. This provides a wider range of textures and also provides an opportunity to share the thematic material between all the players.
