| |  | Mozart - The Last Concertos
Freiburger Barockorchester, Gottfried von der Goltz This recording is the last of the triptych of CDs that
the Freiburger Barockorchester has devoted to
Mozart's concertos. His final instrumental work, the
Clarinet Concerto, was written just a few months after
the last Piano Concerto, No. 27 in 1791.
In both cases, the performers have gone back to the original manuscripts to unearth the details of Mozart's
own performing practice. If his markings are followed precisely, as here, it is possible to rediscover his
fascinating variety of sonic perspectives.
Lorenzo Coppola completed his diploma in Classical clarinet under the guidance of Eric Hoeprich at the
Royal Conservatory in The Hague. Since then he has been one of the most sought-after clarinettists in the
field of historical performance practice. He has played with such ensembles as La Petite Bande, Les Arts
Florissants, the Orchestre des Champs-Élysées, the Orchestra of the 18th Century and the Freiburger
Barockorchester. Lorenzo Coppola also performs chamber repertoire with Ensemble Zefiro, Ensemble
Philidor, the Académie Sainte-Cécile, Harmonie Bohémienne and Düsseldorfer Hofmusik.
Undoubtedly one of the most prominent keyboard performers in the world,Andreas Staier embarked upon
a solo career in 1986 and, since then, his indisputable musical mastery has made its mark on the
interpretation of Baroque, Classical and Romantic repertoire. He has formed a highly successful trio with
violinist Daniel Sepec and cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras; they have recently recorded their first CD, of
Beethoven, for harmonia mundi.His extensive discography has won critical praise from the international
press, whether for BMG,Teldec or hm for whom he has released his last five recordings: Mozart's Sonatas in
two CDs; Haydn concertos with the Freiburger Barockorchester; Hamburg 1734, with the German
harpsichordist Christine Schornsheim; and, more recently, Beethoven's sonatas for violin and piano, with
Daniel Sepec performing on Beethoven's own instrument. In February 2007, and again with Christine
Schornsheim,Andreas Staier released a cd dedicated to a very special instrument: the Stein 'vis-à-vis’. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Mozart / Weber / Spohr - Clarinet Concertos
Gervase de Peyer (clarinet) London Symphony Orchestra, Sir Colin Davis & Peter Maag "There are plenty of other recorded performances of Mozart's and Weber's concertos to choose from, even a couple of Spohr's, but these have acquired classic status. De Peyer is at his finest in Weber's work, which finds him relishing its drama and its technical challenge; he is sympathetically accompanied by another fine clarinettist of yore, Sir Colin Davis (the two of them were once the clarinet stars of the Royal College of Music). De Peyer gives a fluent, easy performance of Mozart's concerto - the Adagio is gracefully phrased, without sentimentality, and the Rondo has a delightful spring to it. The record is a pleasant tribute to his artistry." - Gramophone. | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
