- An All-Mozart
Programme with Leonard Bernstein and the Vienna
Philharmonic
- Something of an angelic
playfulness characterized Bernstein’s Mozart performances, especially when
he himself was the piano soloist – an occurrence unfortunately increasingly
rare in the later years of his life, but one that was captured for
posterity in the present recording from the Vienna Musikverein
- Leonard
Bernstein, music’s great communicator, and one of the 20th century’s most versatile
and articulate conductors, here leads the Vienna Philharmonic in music from
the very heart of the classical repertoire
- Great Mozart
performances full of punch, energy and sensibility – the recording is
brimming with musicality!
"What is at once
evident is the truth of Bernstein’s ’love-affair’ with the Vienna Philharmonic.
The rapport in these performances is almost tangible and probably was visible.
They phrase lovingly for him, they produce a soft and caressing piano string
tone […] and the woodwind are mellifluous indeed. I like these interpretations.
They are so musical and so tuned in to Mozart’s genius." (The Gramophone
Magazine)
