Piano Concertos no. 21 & no. 27

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & John O’Conor & Scottish Chamber Orchestra & Charles Mackerras

Piano Concertos No. 21 & No. 27 is a pairing of piano concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1785 and 1791 respectively. Both works exemplify Classical-era clarity and balanced interplay between soloist and orchestra, with the earlier concerto featuring an expansive, lyrical slow movement and the later concerto — Mozart's final piano concerto — presenting a more intimate, reflective demeanour associated with his late style.
