Mozart
Luca Brugnoli (treble) Rise Up (Convivium Records)
A somewhat flawed recital from a remarkable young singer with real potential [MSt]
Mozart’s Mannheim (Deutsche Grammophon)
Mozart in historical context: Repertoire associated with an orchestra he revered [DF]
Mozart: Piano and Violin Sonatas (Decca)
(Déjà Review) One of the most rewarding and enjoyable Mozart discs in recent years [DS]
Mozart: Concertos (Alpha Classics)
Youthful but remarkably distinguished Mozart concerto performances [NH]
Mozart: Symphonies 34-36 (Hänssler Classic)
Symphonies 34 and 35 get entertainingly fresh, well balanced, focussed and detailed accounts but Symphony 36 is less secure [MG]
Mozart: …che cosa è amor… (Warner Classics)
(Déjà Review) I have derived much pleasure from this disc and I expect many opera lovers will like it too [GF]
Karl Böhm (conductor): The SWR Recordings (SWR Classic)
A rewarding collection [GT]
Mozart: Wind Concertos (Avie)
(Déjà Review) Authenticists might not agree with everything, but surely even they would get sucked in to the spirit of it all [CC]
Carl Seemann (piano): The Orfeo Recordings (Orfeo)
Seemann’s live airings make a welcome return [SG]
The World’s First Piano Concertos (Avie)
(Déjà Review) Excellent performances of early piano concertos played on a little-known instrument [JV]
Mozart: Overtures (RCA)
(Déjà Review) Davis cleaves to traditional values with his superlative orchestra, splendidly recorded [JW]
Mozart: Symphonies 39-41 (BR Klassik)
Wise, seasoned Mozart that gets just about everything right [DMD]
Mozart: Piano Works (ClassicVoice)
Nice performances, but more one for the Bacchetti completists [DC]
Viennese Reflections (Gramola)
An unusual and illuminating programme of music for the organ with connections to Vienna [MSt]
Mozart: Ecstasy and Abyss (Sony Classical)
A release that will probably only appeal to superfans of clarinettist Martin Fröst [ST]
Mozart: Anime Immortali (Pentatone)
Beautiful tone, deep feeling, good enunciation, sure-footed technique, perceptiveness and phenomenal virtuosity [GF]
Mozart: Symphonies 39-41 (BR Klassik)
Masterful, ideally executed and engineered recordings of Mozart’s three greatest symphonies [RMo]
Sir Thomas Allen (baritone) Great Operatic Arias Vol. 2 (Chandos)
(Déjà Review) This collection does full justice to the finest lyric baritone Britain has produced since the Second World War [RJF]
Mozart: Complete Piano Sonatas (Naïve)
A rewarding album, worth every penny of its asking price [SG]
Mozart: Piano Concertos 24 & 25 (Challenge Classics)
Period-style performances of poise and panache on a modern piano [RMo]
Arthur Grumiaux (violin) The Boston Recordings (Parnassus)
(Déjà Review) Some of the most lofty and beautiful playing; I shall return to this disc with equal excitement and pleasure [JW]
Legacy (Naïve)
An imaginative programme, given fine performances [DJB]
Mozart: Piano Sonatas (Brilliant Classics)
(Déjà Review) These original recordings melt the heart [JLa]
