Mozart - Concertos 20 & 23

published: 31/05/2016

Piano Concertos.
This is something where Mozart SHINES !
Mozart is excellent with symphonies, he is fabulous with piano pieces, and as a result, he is extraodinary with piano concertos !

In my view, his late concertos are the best : between number 20 and number 25 especially.

Concerto number 20 is fabulous. All three movements are fabulous.
1st movement is epic, the perfection.
2nd movement is quiet, gorgeous.
3rd movement is intense and passionate.

Let's listen to this 3rd movement !
In a version by Alfred Brendel on piano, with sir Neville Marriner and the academy of St Martin in the Fields orchestra.
This album, which also brings the great 23 concerto, is a reference recording of these 2 concertos.
I really enjoy Alfred Brendel's lively playing, which is perfectly suited to these concertos.
Some of you may prefer more intimate or romantic playing, feel free to share your views 🙂

Haydn has also written some great piano concertos, and the filiation can be felt between them... this is for the next publication 😉
