Les petits riens (French for "The Little Nothings") is a ballet in one act and three tableaux by Jean-Georges Noverre, with music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and other unknown composers, possibly including Franois-Joseph Gossec[citation needed], first performed at the Academie Royale de Music in Paris on 11 June 1778. While Mozart was staying in Paris, Noverre asked him to compose a new score for a ballet that he had created in Vienna in 1767. The ballet was to be danced as an interlude in the new opera Le finte gemelle by Niccol Piccinni. The opera was a flop and closed after four performances. Although the ballet music was well-received, Mozart was not credited with it, and he was at the time little-known in Paris. The score, catalogued as K. 299b, was thought lost, but it was rediscovered in the Paris Opera's archives in the late 19th century and has since entered both the ballet and symphonic repertoire.Arranged wind quintet. This arrangement of no.12 Pantomine is for wind quintet It has been transposed from A into Bb to aid the clarinet player. The original natural Horn part is in Bb basso (alternative Horn in F)
