Mozart’s Symphonies Nos. 13-16 date from a period when the composer was devoting a great deal of his time to symphonic writing, and are particularly interesting from the light they shed on his gradual moulding of the essentially lightweight opera sinfonia to the weightier symphonic manner of Haydn and his Viennese contemporaries. They were penned when he was just fifteen! The last two symphonies on this recording date from after Mozarts’ return home in March 1773 from the third Italian sojourn, during which Wolfgang’s opera Lucio Silla was premiered in Milan. They mark a return to the Italianate overture-symphony, without minuets and largely lacking the repeated sections characteristic of the Germanic concert-symphony. This 2CD set represents all the Mozart symphonies – eleven in all – that Neville Marriner and the Academy recorded for Argo from 1968–71. He was later to re-record some of these works for Philips, in much-praised performances, but the freshness and vitality of these earlier recordings, shared between London’s Kingsway Hall and St. John’s, Smith Square, have an allure of their own. “The playing indeed is a joy” Gramophone Magazine (Nos. 13-16) “These symphonies may be short in length but they are full of sizable things; they are never less than engaging and they sometimes go into Mozart's heart-felt vein. Marriner appreciates all this and gives every passage its own character, both in the vivacious fast movements and in those that go deeper into emotion […] these are extremely perceptive and utterly delightful performances […] I remember, not only no better performances of these symphonies but none nearly as vital in lively movements or as sensitive in slow” Gramophone Magazine (Nos. 23, 24, 26, 27) “The performances have splendid life and polish … the disc can be warmly recommended to all Mozartians” Penguin Guide (Nos. 25, 29) | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

The critically acclaimed series of the Mozart symphonies featuring Sir Charles Mackerras conducting the Prague Chamber Orchestra has been repackaged in a specially priced 10 CD slim-line boxed set. The CDs are in cardboard wallets and the box will fit in a standard CD display rack. This series of recordings by Sir Charles Mackerras and the Prague Chamber Orchestra, begun in 1986, was guided by the research of Sir Charles and some of the most eminent Mozart scholars of our day in terms of size and placement of the orchestra, the use of repeats, articulation and tempi. The Prague Chamber Orchestra's tradition of Mozart performances dates back 200 years. "Sir Charles Mackerras's recordings of the late Mozart symphonies with the Prague Chamber Orchestra for Telarc have established the exceptionally high standard of this series…… fresh, alert performances on an apt scale using modern instruments, recorded in a pleasantly warm acoustic." Edward Greenfield, Gramophone. Includes Nos. '42', '44','45', '46', '47', '55' | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |
