Abstract

B. Mohr was both a skilled violinist and acclaimed flutist from Frankfurt, active during the years 1833-1854. The earliest record for Mohr lists him as second flute at the National Theater in Frankfurt; he was a member of the orchestra at least through 1841. 
He collaborated in 1842 in a noted series of soirées in London which premiered the string quartets op. 18 by Molique; in these soirées Molique played first, violin, and B. Mohr, second violin. Mohr returned to Germany after this tour to England, and was active until at least 1854, and possibly even 1874.
