Italian Serenade, for chamber orchestra

The Italian Serenade is a piece of music written by Hugo Wolf in 1887. It was originally written for string quartet and named simply "Serenade in G major". By April 1890, he was referring to it in his letters as Italian Serenade. In 1892, he arranged it for string orchestra with an important solo viola part. It is one of his few works other than Lieder.
