Leipzigers attended a free premiere on Saturday of one of the recent Mozart discoveries, a 12-minute trio titled Serenate ex C.

It is listed in the new Köchel catalogue as the “Ganz kleine Nachtmusik”, or ‘very little night music’ and catalogued as KV648. Mozart was maybe ten when he wrote it.

The piece was played in a packed foyer of the Leizig Opera and repeated for larger crowds on the steps outside.
