The Oboe Concerto No. 3 in G minor (
HWV 287) was composed by
George Frideric Handel for
oboe,
orchestra and
basso continuo, possibly in 1704-1705,[1] when he was still in
Hamburg. It was first published in
Leipzig in 1863 (from unknown sources) in which it was described as a work from 1703. No other source for the work is known. Other catalogues of Handel's music have referred to the work as
HG xxi, 100; and
HHA iv/12,3.[2]
A typical performance of the work takes around ten minutes.
