A selection of 3 Pieces: Gavotte, Gavotte Gracieuse and Pantomine.

Clarinet part in Bb/A
Horn Part in F/A

Les petits riens (French for The Little Nothings) is a ballet in one act and three tableaux by Jean-Georges Noverre, with music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and other unknown composers, possibly including François-Joseph Gossec[citation needed], first performed at the Academie Royale de Music in Paris on 11 June 1778.

While Mozart was staying in Paris, Noverre asked him to compose a new score for a ballet that he had created in Vienna in 1767. The ballet was to be danced as an interlude in the new opera Le finte gemelle by Niccolò Piccinni.[1] The opera was a flop and closed after four performances. Although the ballet music was well-received,[2] Mozart was not credited with it, and he was at the time little-known in Paris.

This arrangement for wind quintet

Horn parts are for natural horns in F and A.

Clarinet in Bb/A.

The score, catalogued as K. 299b, was thought lost, but it was rediscovered in the Paris Opera's archives in the late 19th century[1] and has since entered both the ballet and symphonic repertoire.

Scored for 2 Trumpets (Bb Cornet/Flugel Horn), Trombone and Tuba. There are alternative parts for F and Eb Horn, Bb Trombone in Treble and Bass Clefs and Eb and Bb Basses also in Treble and Bass Clef. Please note: This title is published for Brass Quartet and Brass Quintet. The parts are not interchangeable and can be identified at the bottom of each page. This piece is excellent for practising ensemble skills as well as for filling that small gap in your program with something light and entertaining. You can use as much rubato as you like. François-Joseph Gossec (1734 – 1829) was a French composer of operas, string quartets, symphonies, and choral works. His Gavotte, from his opera Rosine, ou L'épouse abandonnée (1786), remains familiar in popular culture because Carl Stalling and Charles M. Jones used arrangements of it in several Warner Brothers cartoons. Arguably the most notable of these is Porky Pig's dance to an uncredited version of Gossec's Gavotte in Jones’ Porky's Cafe (1942).
