Mozart's Five Divertimenti KV 439b (App. 229) were presumably composed between 1783 and 1785. They are widely prevalent in various scorings. Originally, the works were written for 3 basset horns (2 basset horns or 2 clarinets and bassoon) - early printings shortly after Mozart's death are known as sources.The arrangement and setting by the composer and conductor Paul Klengel not only opens up a different instrumental genre for the pieces. The usage of string instruments with different pitch ranges results also in a change of register that decisively alters the sound character.
Paul Klengel arranged only four of the Five Divertimentos for strings.
