A sonata for violin and double bass by Mozart? That's right. These sonatas (see also Order No. V 103 and 104) each consist of 4 movements from the 12 "cone duets" for two basset horns. This is quite good for concert practice, because 4 movements of Mozart as a sonata are better suited in concert than to ..., well "delight" the audience with all 12 pieces. All 12 would be rather lengthy, although it is altogether pleasant music, just Mozart. In a well-dosed portion of 4 movements, these sonatas are a real enrichment of the double bass literature, which is also demanding for the bassist, since many parts of the bass voice are in the violin system, while for the violinist the whole thing is more of a pleasant exercise.
The "Kegelduette" are also available in a complete arrangement for cello and double bass and can be heard on the CD "cello bass duette".
