It was written for Heinrich Joseph Baermann (1784-1847), the clarinetist of the Munich Hofkapelle, to whom it was also dedicated.

Exceptional are, however, two short and highly romantic chamber-music sections for clarinet and horn trio, which constitute the middle section and the closing measures of the Adagio.The principal source of the present Urtext edition is the autograph. The appendix contains Baermanns cadenza to the first movement as well as the two aforementioned horn passages in a performance-practical string arrangement made by the composer.
