Principal players of the London Symphony Orchestra display their virtuosic talents on this album of concertos for wind instruments by Mozart, recorded in concert with conductor Jaime Martín in the excellent acoustic of the Jerwood Hall, LSO St Luke's.

Three of Mozart's wind concertos are included: the Oboe Concerto, K314, with soloist Olivier Stankiewicz; the Clarinet Concerto, K622, performed by former LSO Principal Andrew Marriner; and the Horn Concerto No 2, K 417, played by Timothy Jones. Complementing these works is a performance of the beautiful Sinfonia Concertante, K297b, in which bassoonist Rachel Gough, oboist Juliana Koch and clarinettist Chris Richards take the solo roles.

Also included is a recording of Mozart's popular 'Gran Partita', performed by the London Symphony Orchestra Wind Ensemble.

Reviews

‘…The persuasiveness of the musicianship on display throughout is its own recommendation.’

- Gramophone

‘…each performance offers many pleasures…’

- Colin’s Column

'Thanks to a rather exceptional sound recording, the listener thus enters with joy in these twirling rhythms and this leaping lightness maintained by Jaime Martin, very attentive to the respect of the Mozartian gesture.’

- Hebdoscope
