Mozart Concertos at Wigmore Hall

Violinist Alina Ibragimova and fortepianist Kristian Bezuidenhout join forces with the Basel Chamber Orchestra for two Mozart concertos. Plus a Haydn symphony and a world premiere.

Violinist Alina Ibragimova and fortepianist Kristian Bezuidenhout, musicians internationally renowned for bringing an invigorating dynamism to historically informed performance, join forces with the Basel Chamber Orchestra for two Mozart concertos.

Written when he was 21 years old the Piano Concerto No. 9 in E flat K. 271 is the earliest of Mozart's keyboard concertos to show the innovation and musical depths of expression of his later concertos. From a couple of years earlier, the Violin Concerto No. 5 in A K. 219 likewise shows originality, playfulness and innovation, as when the solo violin's very first entry seems suddenly suspended in time, or when 'Turkish' music appears out of nowhere in the midst of a graceful minuet. One of Haydn's most dramatic symphonies and a world premiere from Basel-based Jannik Giger complete the programme.

Recorded on Saturday at Wigmore Hall and introduced by Ian Skelly.
