Question

Luciano Berio orchestrated a sonata for this instrument and piano, titling his orchestration after that piece’s original catalog number, Op. 120 no. 1. (10[1])To fit the requirements of a competition, Alexander von Zemlinsky substituted this instrument for violin in his D minor piano trio. Beethoven arranged his Septet for this instrument, cello, and piano, following the success of his earlier Gassenhauer trio (10[1])for that ensemble. This instrument joins a viola and piano (10[2])in Schumann’s (10[1])Fairy (10[1])Tale Stories (-5[1])and Mozart’s (10[1]-5[1])Kegelstatt (10[2])trio. (10[5])Johannes Brahms’s two sonatas for this instrument and piano, written for Richard Muhlfeld, (10[1])are often played (10[1])on viola. Both Brahms and Mozart used theme-and-variations (-5[1])movements to conclude chamber pieces for this instrument and string quartet. For 10 points, Brahms wrote both a late trio and quintet featuring what woodwind (10[1])instrument? (10[3])■END■ (10[3]0[3])
