The divine and the human appear to co-exist in Mozart’s music. This celebration of the composer’s enduring genius brings ‘peak’ Mozart to the Royal Albert Hall, culminating in the continuous stream of liberated musical joy that is his final symphony, the ‘Jupiter’. Before that, Riccardo Minasi conducts his dynamic Ensemble Resonanz – Resident Ensemble at Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie – in a pair of Mozart’s most thrilling overtures alongside the achingly beautiful Sinfonia concertante, a double concerto for violin and viola that offers the warmest of musical embraces.
