Mozart's friend, Anton Stadler (1753-1812), a clarinetist and basset-horn player, gained recognition for some technical improvements he made to the instruments. By combining the clarinet with some features of the basset-horn he extended the instrument compass down to a lower pitch. With pleasure Mozart enjoyed the distinctious between the high, middle and low registers of clarinet instruments. In addition to his Trio in E Flat Major KV 498 for Piano, Clarinet and Viola of 1786, which he played himself with Stadler, as a violist, in September 1789 Mozart composed also the Quintet for Clarinet, two Violins, Viola and Cello, KV 581, for his friend. Stadler performed the composition first in Vienna, on 22 December 1789. From that time it has retained also a part of the composition which became the basis of the Concert for Clarinet and Orchestra, KV 622. Stadler performed it first in Prague on 16 October 1791. It was the last premićre held during Mozart's life. Also two arias appearing in the coronation opera "La Clemenza di Tito", KV 621 were created for Stadler (with the concertante clarinet and basset horn, respectively) that were performed by Stadler himself at the premiére in Prague (6 September 1791) and subsequent performances as well.
