Recorded live at the Konzerthaus, Berlin, 13 November 2005
* Mozart Year 2006 - 250th birthday on 27 January 2006
* An All-Mozart Programme conducted by Hartmut Haenchen
* In the present performance, Haenchen and a reduced ensemble succeed in bringing to life the music's manifold characteristics through the translucency of the part-writing. Whether light-heartedness, songlike lyricism, drama or inspired polyphonic writing: everything breathes the spirit of Mozart
* Time and again, critics have praised the orchestra's stylistic assurance, transparent textures and technical precision
* Hartmut Haenchen is a man of considerable gravitas, now in his sixties this is an artist to be rediscovered, a highly dedicated artist with a breadth of experience who exudes warmth and charm
* Stefan Vladar's extraordinarily sensitive touch and stylistic assurance make him an ideal partner for Haenchen and his orchestra
* Vladar was only twenty when, as the youngest of 140 participants, he won the International Beethoven Piano Competition in Vienna
* Brand new recording - state-of-the-art quality
* Booklet Notes: English, German, French |
