About

When Nikolaus Harnoncourt died in March 2016, the music world lost one of its most influential and charismatic conductors. Harnoncourt was a pioneer of historically informed performances and the repertoire is enriched for the approach it took to it. Deutsche Grammophon commemorates the first anniversary of his death in March 2017, presenting two of his legendary recordings again on vinyl.

Harnoncourt’s remarkable historically informed Mozart recordings with Gidon Kremer and the Vienna Philharmonic, celebrating Gidon Kremer’s 70th birthday on 27 February 2017.

“Gidon has understood how easy it is to confuse apparent simplicity in this music with superficiality. ... He belongs to that small company of musicians and music-lovers who, with continual amazement, approach the unfathomable depths of this music with modesty and humility.” - Harnoncourt on Kremer’s Mozart interpretations
 
“Kremer is one of the most exciting performers around.” - BBC Music Magazine
