Emil Hartmann's Serenade for Clarinet, Cello and Piano was composed in 1878. Hartmann's publisher, as was standard practice for a work of this combination, asked the composer to make a part for violin, which would allow a standard piano trio to play the music. Hartmann not only supplied a violin part, but apparently felt the work would also be suitable for the viola, playing mostly in its higher registers. Hence the part he produced, though for the most part in treble clef, does have several alternative passages in alto clef intended for the viola alone. The Serenade is in three movements: Idylle, Romance and Rondo. The opening movement, Idylle, alternates between a dreamy, Brahmsian mood and a lighter and brighter faster section. The gorgeous Romance which follows is superbly written. The finale, Rondo, is upbeat and full of fetching melody.
