This release features Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 5, Church Sonata No. 17, Concerto movement in G major from Nannerl’s Music Book (reconstructed by Robert Levin), and the Piano Concertos K. 107 based on the sonatas by Johann Christian Bach. The recording is part of a landmark cycle which Robert Levin began in 1993. Upon completion, this cycle will become the first-ever recording of Mozart’s complete works for keyboard and orchestra on either modern or historical instruments. Speaking about the importance of the project, Levin comments: “This cycle is a central element both in Christopher Hogwood’s legacy as founder and leader of the Academy of Ancient Music and within my own career, and completing it represents the successful realization of a project of outstanding significance.”
