A nonet is almost a little orchestra. An ensemble of nine performers is regarded as the biggest line-up that can play chamber music freely, with the utmost understanding between the musicians and without the need for a conductor. Yet the proportions in this ensemble are of fundamental importance: not every work for nine instruments is a nonet. The standard was set by Louis Spohr in his Grand Nonetto in F major from 1831, scored for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn, violin, viola, cello and double bass. Other nineteenth-century composers drew on Spohr’s model, including Onslow and Rheinberger, both popular in Germany. The time for experimentation would come only at the start of the next century.
