Anton Hoffmeister was active in Vienna both as a composer and a publisher, becoming closely associated with Mozart and including works by Beethoven amongst his editions. The combination of violin and cello had its appeal for the amateur market, though Hoffmeister's Duos Op. 6 include plenty of technical challenges. Conjecturally dated to Beethoven's final years as a young man in Bonn, the three refreshing and inventive Duos for Clarinet and Bassoon have appeared in numerous arrangements.
Beethoven:
Duets (3), WoO 27
Hoffmeister:
Duos (6) for Violin and Viola
