Boccherini wrong instruments

Post by MarienAbspoel »

Hello all, in the https://imslp.org/wiki/Symphony_in_D_ma ... %2C_Luigi)
is stated two oboes. The score is for two flutes, without oboes. It is stated that Grunberg interchanged for two oboes, but it is not clear whether the notes remained the same or octave differences are used to avoid low notes.
Wanted is the specification for two flutes, two French Horns, Bassoon and strings.

The original instrumentation is for oboes, not flutes. Compare https://opac.rism.info/search?id=1001048363&View=rism .
