Arthur Schoonderwoerd & Cristofori - Mozart: Piano Concertos KV 271, KV 413 & KV 414 (2017)

Arthur Schoonderwoerd, one of today's most sought-after interpreters on the fortepiano, presents the sixth volume of Mozart's piano concertos on the Accent label with this release of three early concertos, nos. 9, 11 and 12. As they have already done on their previous issues, the aim of Schoonderwoerd and his ensemble Cristofori here is to liberate Mozart's works from traditional 19th-century sound concepts. Each string part in the orchestra is played by just one performer; the result is a very slender, transparent sound that supports the solo instrument without ever obscuring.
