Concerto pour piano n°20 - concerto pour piano n°25

Description

A live album recorded with the Mozart Orchestra, bringing together for the first time Martha Argerich and Claudio Abbado around Mozart's concertos.The legendary pianist Martha Argerich and the renowned conductor Claudio Abbado add the sublime music of Mozart to their unparalleled and multi-award-winning discography of concertos by Tchaikovsky, Chopin, Ravel, Prokofiev, Beethoven, and Liszt.The two works presented are very different: the Concerto No. 20 in D minor K 466, dark and poignant, is close to the composer's operas, with a stormy and lyrical temperament found in the theme of the Queen of the Night or in the Overture of the Requiem.With its majestic and radiant opening, and a famous march reminiscent of the Marseillaise, the Concerto No. 25 in C major K 503 is the last of the twelve concertos that Mozart wrote in Vienna between 1784 and 1786.
