Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Alessio Allegrini & Claudio Abbado & Orchestra Mozart

Horn Concertos Nos. 1-4 is a set of four concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in the 1780s. They exemplify Classical-era orchestral writing for the natural horn, featuring lyrical melodies, elegant phrasing and virtuosic solo passages, and they occupy a central place in Mozart's output and the horn repertoire.
