Description:
Program note (English): The Octuor is a Divertimento for flute, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, bass clarinet and 2 bassoons. Unlike many contemporary compositions, literal repeats are rather frequent in it: the 4th movement is a repeat of the 2nd; the Overture consists of three parts, the 3rd being identical with the 1st; and the 5th movement is a Scherzo with Trio and repeat of the Scherzo.
