Mozart • Piano Concertos 13-14

Description

“… Janina Fialkowska is a fine Mozartian in these recordings of Concertos No. 11 and 12 [ATMA ACD2 2518, Vol. 1] in the composer’s chamber arrangements (with double bass added for strength). She finds the crossroads of simplicity and lyricism; the style is neither naive nor arch.” The Gazette• Recently awarded Canada’s prestigious Governor General’s Performing Arts Award 2012 for lifetime Achievement in Classical Music, pianist Janina Fialkowska presents her second Mozart CD on ATMA with two infrequently-heard concertos in a chamber version from Mozart’s tremendous output of 27 piano concertos. Two of Mozart’s best-known works, Eine kleine Nachtmusic arranged for string quintet and Variations on “Ah vous dirai-je, maman”; for solo piano are also included.
