Concerto for Flute, Harp, and Orchestra in C Major, K. 299/297c by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Composed in 1778 while Mozart was living in Paris. At the time, the harp was still relatively new to the orchestra and featuring the instrument in this fashion was unusual.

The duke was a talented flautist and his daughter was taking lessons for the harp.
The work is comprised of three movements:
