MOZART: Twelve Great Piano Concerti 5 CD Set

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1759-1791)

Mozart's late period Piano Concertos are among the greatest triumphs of the revered composer-virtuoso's extraordinary talent. As entertaining and endearing as they are undisputed masterpieces of the Classical style, his late works for piano and orchestra served as a model for over two centuries of large-scale concerante works, the apotheosis of virtuoso instrumental writing showcasing great pianism and orchestral beauty.

This five-disc set features highly-regarded Mozart interpreters Walter Klien, Alfred Brendel, Ingrid Haebler, Rudolf Firkusny and Alan Weiss in critically acclaimed performances with an eclectic list of ensembles including the Vienna Symphony and Minnesota Orchestras.
