Details
By his 18th birthday, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart had reached the midpoint of his life. In that year, 1778, he traveled to Paris to look for a job. He and the French capital didn’t think much of one another, but he did write a dynamite symphony that bears the city’s name. In 1781, Mozart landed in Vienna, where he became a bon vivant, filling his days with concerts, new works, and glittering parties. He wrote his Linz Symphony in 1883 and his Piano Concerto No. 17 in 1884. He was a genius at the height of his powers, as you’ll hear in this high-energy trio of works.
"The fury of notes [Tiberghiene] worked up in his first-movement cadenza were particularly impressive. But just as captivating was the atmosphere of calm he could create, taking extreme care with something as simple as the final broken chord that ends a phrase. Uniting it all were his near-flawless execution and an interpretation that accounted for every detail."
