About This Performance

Mozart’s “other” Sinfonia concertante, for four wind soloists, reminds us of the skillfulness with which the composer utilized these instruments in his extraordinary serenades and divertimentos; he even called on them as a choir of extra voices in his mature piano concertos. Here they become the focus of his, and our, attention.

Come for:

Mozart and Mendelssohn from Gustavo Dudamel.

And more:

The emotionally highly charged chaconne for strings that Penderecki added to his Polish Requiem in memory of Pope John Paul II.
