Louis Spohr (1784-1859) was one of the most important musicians of the 19th century, a renowned concert violinist and teacher, composer and conductor. His Nonet in F major Op. 31 was the first of its kind and commissioned by the Viennese merchant and violinist Johann von Tost. The premiere aroused so much enthusiasm that the nonet had to be repeated several times in the season.
