Piano Concertos no. 8 KV 246 / no. 9 KV 271
Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Mitsuko Uchida & English Chamber Orchestra & Jeffrey Tate
Piano Concertos no. 8 KV 246 and no. 9 KV 271 are two piano concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1776 and 1777. Both works sit within the Classical period and illustrate Mozart's evolving approach to the piano concerto, featuring balanced dialogue between solo piano and orchestra, graceful melodic writing, clear classical textures and increasing sophistication in form and orchestration that foreshadow his later concertos.
