Flute
    At the age of eight, Mozart wrote a set of Sonatas (K. 10-15) for piano, flute or violin, with optional cello.  They are really piano pieces with flute accompaniment because the piano part is so predominant. You can hear them played by pianist Daniel Barenboim and flutist Guy Eshed online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6q5UoZuRZrk. The performance is a live recording from the 2006 Jerusalem Chamber Music Festival.
