Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

A major

Enregistrements

Premier Choix

Clifford Curzon / István Kertész / London Symphony

1968

Paired (Nos. 23 & 24). Curzon brings a 'beautiful touch, that classical poise.' Beautifully recorded, especially the 'gorgeous' middle movement of No. 23.

Également Recommandés

Wilhelm Kempff / Ferdinand Leitner / Bamberg Symphony

1961

Paired (Nos. 23 & 24). A strong version. Kempff is 'immaculate in his artistry,' with a 'wonderful soft touch.' Idiosyncratic (faster middle movements), but 'so musical and beautiful'.

Solomon / Herbert Menges / Philharmonia Orchestra

1955 Mono recording

Paired (Nos. 23 & 24). Mono, distant, boxy sound. Solomon is a 'supreme interpreter,' 'very intellectual,' and 'tailor-made for the classicism'.

Murray Perahia / Murray Perahia / English Chamber Orchestra

1984

No. 23 only. A highlight of his cycle. The adagio is 'one of the most beautiful ever recorded,' 'so graceful and gorgeous'.

Daniel Barenboim / Daniel Barenboim / English Chamber Orchestra

1960s

No. 23 only. 'A little bit more romantic, maybe a little bit more individual,' but with 'classical grace' and 'nice warmth'.
