Mozart Piano Concertos
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed numerous concertos, many of which are lively and pleasing to the ear, even when performed by an eight-year-old. The young Mozart was heavily influenced by the music of Johann Christian Bach. In addition to their mutual love for music, JC Bach and Mozart shared a passion for intricate keyboard games. This week features five episodes of exceptional piano performances, with Murray Perahia conducting while soloing Mozart’s early concertos. It also includes performances by Alfred Brendel, Maria João Pires, Rudolf Serkin, and Mitsuko Uchida.
