The Mozart Album

Lang Lang

Classical - Released September 15, 2014 | Sony Classical

For this all-Mozart twofer from Sony, piano virtuoso Lang Lang, conductor Nikolaus Harnoncourt, and the Vienna Philharmonic present a program of piano concertos, piano sonatas, and several short solo pieces that give a good sampling of the composer's keyboard output. The roster may provoke some cognitive dissonance, though, because Harnoncourt is best known for historically informed period interpretations of Mozart, while Lang Lang and the Vienna Philharmonic are more associated with a conventional, mainstream performance style. One might expect some compromise between the two camps, yet while the orchestra incorporates some aspects of Classical sound into its playing, it remains a modern orchestra of full size, and Harnoncourt doesn't ask for the tone colors and techniques he would demand of his own Concentus Musicus Wien. For the soloist's part, Lang Lang is rather restrained and sensitive to the character of the music, and apart from some showiness in his cadenzas, he shows less of the ebullience and bravura playing he otherwise shows in Liszt or Rachmaninov. The section of the program devoted to solo piano works is less of a stylistic challenge, but Lang Lang's mannered playing is a matter of taste, and listeners who like a fairly Romantic interpretation will like his approach. Others, however, will already know Lang Lang's readings are not historically informed performances and avoid them.© TiVo

The Mozart Album

Danielle de Niese

Classical - Released January 1, 2009 | Decca Music Group Ltd.

Booklet
American soprano Danielle de Niese, whose family background goes back to the European/South Asian Sri Lankan Burghers, is being marketed as the next hot vocalist, having come on the scene with a group of spectacular stage performances that equally showcased her powerhouse voice and her exotic charisma. This, her sophomore album release, offers a good place to stop and consider what kind of a singer she is developing into. It was Mozart's music that put her on the map, and to her credit she mostly avoids the arias that show up on every other vocal Mozart album, reserving the really familiar "Là ci darem la mano" for a reunion with former co-star Bryn Terfel. More good news comes in the overall musical relationship between de Niese and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment with its venerable conductor, Charles Mackerras; de Niese is front and center where a diva should be, and Mackerras gives the orchestra a unique hushed tone. As for the voice, the results might be called mixed but still continuing to be promising. In the opening Exsultate, jubilate, K. 165, de Niese fans will find what they came for: great blooms of creamy sound covering the range of this virtuoso piece. In general, de Niese's singing is powerful and attractive, with warmth at the low end brightening to a sparkling edge at the top, and she has picked plenty of music that showcases her strengths. In music of more purely dramatic content, such as "Ah! Fuggi il traditor," from Don Giovanni, the jury is still out; there are plenty of conventional gestures, but less sense of real engagement with the music. Still, to consider this less than an intriguing second outing amounts to pure sniping.© TiVo

Stephen Hough's Mozart Album

Stephen Hough

Classical - Released March 1, 2008 | Hyperion

Booklet
This 2008 Hyperion disc called A Mozart Album programmed and performed by English pianist Stephen Hough is a model recital. The disc starts with pure Mozart, the Fantasia in C minor, K. 475, and the Sonata in B flat major K. 333, then moves to not so pure Mozart, a Fantasia in C minor, K. 396, begun by Mozart but finished after his death by Maximillian Stadler. After that, there are three Mozartian virtuoso pastiches, Johann Baptist Cramer's Hommage à Mozart and Ignaz Friedman's Menuetto in D major from the Divertimento for strings and horns, K. 334, plus Hough's own Three Mozart Transformations (after Poulenc): the Menuet, K. 1; Klavierstücke, K. 333; and Sehnsucht nach dem Frühling, K. 596. And the disc closes with a super virtuoso expansion by Ferruccio Busoni of a virtuoso work by Franz Liszt called Fantasia on Two Themes from Mozart's Marriage of Figaro. Each piece has its own appeal, but taken together, the program is ideally balanced between poise and propulsion, charm and vivacity, and musicality and virtuosity.Hough, of course, is a stupendous pianist with a bravura technique, an enormous tone, and a sensitive touch. But would one have expected him to be a stupendous Mozart pianist? Wouldn't his power and passionate perforce have overwhelmed the elegant and graceful music of the Austrian composer? In the event, no, though Hough does stack the deck in his favor. His pure Mozart is bigger, tougher Mozart, and Hough plays it with as much force as necessary but without overloading it. Just as fine are his Mozartian pastiches with their dancing sense of tempo and slightly secco touch. But best of all is his performance of Busoni's version of Liszt's Figaro Fantasia. Here Hough can turn it loose, ramping up the muscle and juicing up the virtuosity until the music fairly combusts at the climax. And yet, such is Hough's innate sense of taste that his performance never oversteps into empty bombast. Captured in vibrantly present digital sound, A Mozart Album demands to be heard by anyone who loves great piano playing.© TiVo
