The Double Concerto, K299, for Flute and Harp is one of the major pieces of the harp repertoire, and one of the few pieces that non-harpists are familiar with. Most harp students at music college will be expected to learn it, and a few might get to perform it.

In the spirit of 18th C Pot Pouri compositions, in which themes from favourite operas would be arranged as works, and adaptations of larger works for domestic performance, I have tried to make the work accessible to students of the pedal harp, and render it useful as a duo for flute and harp, without orchestra.

Mozart's solo writing is largely unchanged ( and marked with a line where it is... a few passages where the orchestral bass is more critical than the harp bass in making the music 'work). The Tutti's are divided between the instruments, and marked as to where the original solos begin, and end, so once this piece has been learned, it is only a matter of learning where to stop playing, and the Concerto is fundamentally learned.

The flute part is printed integrally, and may be photocopied for use, and I have endeavoured to make all page turns as considerate as possible, though this is not always possible in a work of this size.

Because this edition was converted to PDF via a program I do not have, it is not easy to make corrections, but I will assemble an erata sheet to include ( e.g. pge 28, bar 59, harp bass, the E# should be a G)
