Rinaldo Alessandrini conducts the Barcelona Symphony and National Orchestra of Catalonia in Mozart's Symphony No 25 and Rossini's Stabat Mater in a concert given in Barcelona in October 2019.

The orchestra begins with a symphony written by a 17-year-old Mozart - No. 25, his "Little G minor", famously used as the opening music for Milos Forman's film "Amadeus".

During the interval, you can hear rarely performed chamber music by Donizetti - his Quintet for guitar and strings, played by Mario Gangi with members of the Chamber Orchestra of Santa Cecilia.

In the second half of the concert, soloists Marta Math茅u, Marianne Beate Kielland, Enea Scala and Riccardo Zanellato join the orchestra and Barcelona's Madrigal Choir to perform Rossini's Stabat Mater - a work that has remained popular ever since its premiere in 1842.
