The Serenade No. 11 for Winds in E-flat major K. 375, was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart on 15 October 1781 for St Theresa's day.[1]

The original version of the serenade is scored for six players: 2 clarinets, 2 horns, and 2 bassoons. Mozart later revised the score to add parts for two oboes.

It has five movements:

  1. Allegro maestoso
  2. Menuetto
  3. Adagio
  4. Menuetto
  5. Allegro
