It is obvious that the wave of baroque music and its string of splendid "historically accurate" performances has completely changed our listening habits. But this is no reason to vilify the records that once characterized their era. When Bruno Walter recorded Mozart's last six symphonies at the very end of his life, with an orchestra formed in California for the sole purpose of Columbia with musicians largely from Los Angeles, he benefited from the latest advances in stereophonic technology and was given time to rehearse everything at his own pace. At the time, Mozart was played with a full orchestra and a legato style that we no longer use. But these recordings are timeless because they reflect a style and a time when music was lived with an almost religious approach, tinged with a humanism further reinforced by the tragedy of the Second World War, after which the world was rebuilt through music. Bruno Walter's quasi-metaphysical vision is that of a great European with a love of culture and civilization: his Mozart is exceptionally fraternal. © François Hudry/Qobuz
