Nonetto, op 38 (1849)
for woodwind quintet (flute, oboe, clarinet, horn & bassoon), violin, viola, cello, and string bass
by Louise Farrenc (1804-1875) - French composer, virtuoso pianist, and teacher
Similar in structure and style to the Beethoven Septet and the Schubert Octet, this twenty-five minute work in E-Flat Major is in four movements featuring prominent solo lines and variations or all of the instrumentalists. The premiere of the Nonetto in November, 1850, featured 19-year old legendary violinist Josef Joachim, and catapulted Farrenc to near-celebrity status as a composer- so much so that she subsequently requested that the Paris Conservatoire put her salary in line with male professors, a request which was immediately granted.
