This sampling of previously unpublished chamber music with keyboard, composed around 1770 by Haydn's contemporaries Wagenseil, Hofmann, Steffan, Mann, Zimmermann, and Vanhal, offers delightful examples of entertainment music from mid-eighteenth-century Vienna. These works furnish valuable evidence of the origins of this genre, and also a stylistic context for Haydn's early chamber music with keyboard.

"Michelle Fillion's edition of these dozen pieces is nothing less than admirable. . . . The prefatory material is thorough and to the point. A-R Editions has again done a first-rate job of production and design." A. Peter Brown, Notes, September 1992.
