About

Completed almost simultaneously in Vienna in early 1786, Mozart’s Concertos nos. 23 and 24 contrast starkly and seem to have been written years apart – or by two distinct yet connected minds of equal genius.

As for the Piano Concertino by Genevan composer Bernard Reichel (1901-1992), it belongs unmistakably to the concertante tradition initiated by Mozart. Both Reichel and Mozart are driven by a common desire for clarity, concision and expressive sobriety, permanently searching for balance between soloist and orchestra. The listener will thus find it quite natural to travel from one universe to the other.
