BONUS CONCERT: MOZARTS FAVOURITE WITH EMELYANYCHEV
Stay and enjoy this bonus concert which begins shortly after the original programme.
Mozart composed no less than twelve piano concertos during a particularly productive three-year-period in 1784–86. One of these is the A major concerto no. 23 in the main programme. In only a few days’ time in the spring of 1784, Mozart threw together a chamber piece for piano and four winds in three varied movements. The piano part is often, but not always, concerto-like; the winds are also allowed plenty of time in the spotlight.
