Ping to First Sunday Music with Mozart’s Piano Concertos.

Mozart:

Ave verum corpus, K. 618

Chor und Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks/Leonard Bernstein, conductor/1990

I don’t know about the Brendel/Marriner.

For the piano concertos, I would recommend either the Kempff/Leitner series on DG for traditional performances, or the Demus/Collegium Aureum on German Harmonia Mundi for original-instrument HIP.

For the symphonies, there are some fine performances by Benjamin Britten on Decca, Fricsay on DG, and Karl Bohm on DG.

Don’t forget the amazing classic Marriage of Figaro with Giulini and the Philharmonia on EMI.

Thanks! Mozart seems to have to effect of always putting me in a better mood, and I needed that this morning. :-)

The first musical entrepreneur in world history, W. A. Mozart most likely died of trichinosis. Cook your pork better than Constanza did!

Thanks for this very nice post.

I liked that! Thanks!

Mozart was only 35 when he died. Imagine how many more works he would have written had he lived to be 70! Imagine if he had been alive to hear Beethoven’s symphonies - there would have been quite a battle between them, with each one trying to outdo the other.

I love it!!!

Tragic is it not? I have thought the same thing.

We were robbed by his death as he also was.

Let’s not forget the unofficial opus of the Freemasons, “The Magic Flute.”
