About

The four great concertos on this new album span the years 1785-1791, Mozart’s last year. The range of emotions these works convey is extraordinary. No.20 in D minor left the audience at the premiere reeling. It is terse, angry and full of passion.

The C major Concerto no.21, in contrast, is sunny, bright and full of optimism. No.23 in A major is bathed in a feeling of warm contentment. The wistful and heartfelt Adagio is especially striking.

No.27 in B flat of 1791 is an autumnal work of intense sadness, almost as if the composer sensed his life was coming to an end.

“Sombart’s playing is superb: technically precise, but possessing a flexibility and freedom that lets the music breath” - The Observer
