The Violin Concertos

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Columbia Symphony Orchestra & The Cleveland Orchestra & George Szell & English Chamber Orchestra & Alexander Schneider & Isaac Stern

The Violin Concertos are a set of five violin concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed between 1773 and 1775. They exemplify Classical-era concerto form with clear melodic lines, transparent orchestration and virtuosic solo writing, and they occupy a key position in the violin repertoire as works that bridge Mozart's early concerto style and his later compositional maturity.
