About

Mozart was at his consistent best in the piano concertos, in which he successfully combined elements of virtuosity and depth, chamber music and symphonic style, and regard for both his public audience and his personal expression. Pianist Walter Klien recorded for VOX all of Mozart's works for piano, together with those by Schubert and many works of other important composers.

The present recording was made in 1978 by the famous production team of Joanna Nickrenz and Marc Aubort founders of the appropriately named Elite Recordings studio. The Grammy category of 'Producer of the Year, Classical' was introduced in 1979 and Joanna Nickrenz was the first woman to receive a nomination for the award. During her long career she received eight 'Producer of the Year, Classical' nominations and won the distinction twice. In 1983, she shared the win with Marc Aubort. In 1996, she was the sole recipient. Since that time, many of their projects have achieved collector status, especially their recordings of American orchestras. For this re-issue the original tapes have been carefully restored and transferred before being subsequently re-mastered.
