Piano Concertos No. 8 KV 246 "Lutzow" / No. 26 KV 537 "Coronation"

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Alfred Brendel & Academy of St Martin in the Fields & Sir Neville Marriner

This release features two piano concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1776 and 1788. Both works exemplify Classical-era concerto writing, combining clear formal structures, elegant melodic lines and a conversational solo-orchestra interplay, with the earlier concerto reflecting galant charm and the later representing Mozart's mature orchestral writing often associated with ceremonial occasions in his career.
First released: 1985
