Mozart / Milani - Adagio & Fugue Kv 546: Sinfonia Concertante Kv 36 [CD]

The works on this album take us on a journey exploring Mozart's diverse musical horizons. It opens with the dramatic Adagio and Fugue, K. 546, a work with an almost primeval expressive power that can still shock today. The Sinfonia Concertante is one of Mozart's greatest masterpieces, it's luminous world of elegance and clarity delivering a message of hope amidst the most profound melancholy. The programme ends with Mozart's youthful Symphony No. 27 in which an intensity of expression and air of enigmatic mystery hides behind a gloss of graceful playfulness.
