Alessandra Gentile with the Perugia Chamber Orchestra conducted by Christian Schmitt, a monographic album dedicatedto W.A. Mozart with the two Concertos for piano and orchestra no. 19 and no. 9. The CD opens with the Concerto forpiano and orchestra no. 19 KV 459, completed in Vienna in 1784 and performed in 1790 by Mozart himself in Frankfurton the occasion of the celebrations for the coronation of Leopold II (and for this reason called the second CoronationConcerto) and published posthumously in 1800. A piece that appears particularly lively, not only for the enriched instrumentationof the wind instruments, but also and above all for the brilliant indications of meter and tempo and for the incrediblerichness of the writing.The Concerto no. 19 KV 459 is followed in the tracklist by a largescalework, the Concerto for piano and orchestra no. 9KV 271, also in three movements, composed in Salzburg between 1776 and 1777, a piece considered among the milestonesof Mozart's vast repertoire. The recorded program thus allows us to rediscover with new sophistication two cornerstonesof Salzburg's genius, entrusted to the interpretation of Alessandra Gentile and Christian Schmitt conductingthe Perugia Chamber Orchestra, a group that debuted in 2013 and collaborates regularly with important masters, soloistsand choral groups."Email Signup
