An Evening of Mozart Piano Concertos

Festival Orchestra
Jeffrey Kahane - Conductor and Piano


Mozart - Piano Concerto No. 21 in C major
Mozart - Piano Concerto No. 24 in C minor
Mozart - Piano Concerto No. 22 in E-flat major

“One superb performance after another.”—Los Angeles Times

“Kahane dazzlingly animated details and kept a listener guessing.”—Los Angeles Times

"For this piano-packed evening featuring three spirited concertos, esteemed Mozart interpreter Jeffrey Kahane, a versatile artist of “effortless musicality and extraordinary communicative gifts” (Los Angeles Times), conducts from the keyboard. Moving from Mozart’s beloved Concerto No. 21 in C major to the brooding defiance of Concerto No. 24 in C minor, the program ends on the ebullient highs of his delightful Concerto No. 22 in E-flat major."

Mozart is so good.  His music is sublime.  The performance last night was similar to as it would have been in Vienna with the piano facing the orchestra and no conductor other than the pianist.  The musicians and the music were great.

That woman in the flower dress has a dog in her purse!

I guess it, too, likes Mozart?
