Salvatore Accardo - Mozart: Sinfonia Concertante KV 364 / Concertone KV 190 (2021) [SACD]

The Sinfonia Concertante KV 364 takes on a deaths that is very different from the Gallant grace of the earlier compositions. The marvelous dialogue of the two solo instruments is sustained by an orchestra whose participation in the dramatic oscillations of the score is totally penetrating. In formal terms, many points of contact, if not indeed real parallels can be identified between the score, and the Concerto in E flat for two pianos KV 365 written in the same period: this much can be seen in the familiar ring of the melodies, borrowed from the latter
