Klavierkonzerte no. 17 G-dur, K. 453 / No. 26 D-dur, K. 537 "Krönungskonzert"

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & English Chamber Orchestra & Daniel Barenboim

Klavierkonzerte No. 17 in G major, K. 453, and No. 26 in D major, K. 537 (the "Krönungskonzert") is a release of two piano concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1784 and 1788 respectively. The works exemplify Mozart's mature Classical-era concerto writing, characterised by a balance of virtuosic solo piano writing and orchestral dialogue, clear formal structures and lyrical slow movements, with K. 537 representing his final contribution to the piano concerto genre and K. 453 illustrating his development of expressive solo passages.

First released: 1987
