Mozarts Gran Partita

Mozart’s Serenade No. 10 Gran Partita for 12 wind instruments and a double bass is, with its seven movements, rich in everything that is usually associated with the composer’s style; playfulness, contrasts, and virtuosity mixed with infectious melodies. When musicians from the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra take on this masterpiece, it is combined with the contemporary Swedish composer Andrea Tarrodi’s Serenade in Seven Colours, written with Gran Partita and the jazz trumpeter Miles Davis and pianist Gil Evans’ album Quiet Nights from 1963 as sources of inspiration.
