This ninth installment of the Next Generation Mozart Soloists series presents four young soloists under the direction of Howard Griffiths and reveals the full range of Mozart’s creativity. Mozart most likely heard a Sinfonia concertante – a work in which a group of solo instruments enters into a dialog with the orchestra – for the first time in Paris in 1778. The following year he composed such a work for violin, viola and orchestra: the Sinfonia concertante K. 364. It is recorded here by Johan Dalene and Eivind Ringstad, who are full of praise for the way Mozart placed the viola on an equal footing with the violin.

Mozart composed no less than four horn concertos in Vienna; the first of these is played here by Alexandre Zanetta, who admits to being fascinated by the delicacy, complexity and humor of the work. The pianist Ariel Lanyi describes the two rondos for piano and orchestra K. 382 and K. 386 recorded here as perfect examples of simplicity and variety as well as the passages with a distinctly operatic character.
