Jugendsinfonieorchester Leipzig, "W.A. Mozart - Serenate ex C - Ganz kleine Nachtmusik KV648." AFP: "Unknown Mozart string trio discovered in Germany": "The piece dates to the mid- to late-1760s and consists of seven miniature movements for a string trio lasting around 12 minutes ... 'the inspiration ... apparently came from Mozart's sister.'" International Mozarteum Foundation's media kit and press release for The New Köchel. Stadt Leipzig Newsletter. Wikipedia. International Music Score Library Project. See also the fictionalized film Mozart's Sister, available on Kanopy, Hoopla, and Tubi.
Austria should enter this for Eurovision 2025, with a presentation like "Rock Me Amadeus." I'd vote for it so fast...

My husband, a professional violinist who does a lot of coaching of adult amateurs, said this piece will certainly be on the program of the summer "strings music camp" for adults where he is a faculty member.
