About

Volume 11 of the "Next Generation Mozart Soloists" series presents Violin Concerto no.5 in A major along with Piano Concertos K40 and K449. The Piano Concerto no.3 is a very early work, derived from works by other composers, whereas no.14 was written in 1784 by a fully mature Mozart, who was moving away from functional music towards expressing his ideas in a more dramatic structure. What links the two, says Swiss-Canadian pianist Teo Gheorghiu, is that they are both "concertos mainly joyful and optimistic in expression". French violinist David Castro-Balbi says "of Mozart’s violin concertos, no.5 has the strongest operatic character". These two soloists are accompanied by the Mozarteumorchester Salzburg under the baton of Howard Griffiths.
