Very special

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 November 2021

Verified Purchase

The critic, David Hurwitz, drew my attention to this set - I believe that he considers it the greatest set of Mozart piano concertos. I already have e.g. the Murray Perahia, Uchida/Tate, Brendel/Marriner, Buchbinder, and Anda sets. I was not especially attracted by the idea of Andras Schiff, who is a great pianist, but I tend to prefer a more individual style. (I have the same feelings about Perahia.) But I gave the set a go. To my surprise, it is for me unquestionably the greatest set of Mozart piano concertos I have heard, with Uchida/Tate a clear next in line. What makes this set so very special? First, the conducting of Vegh is beyond praise. Hurwitz is correct in his comments that conducting of such superlative quality makes a big difference. Second, Schiff's rather subtle style complements an orchestra conducted with a more individual style than is typical. It is wonderful playing. Unlike most sets in which the orchestra is very much the accompanist, here the piano and orchestra are equal partners. Like Uchida/Tate, Schiff/Vegh never lose sight of the strong melancholic element in these concertos. I have never heard concertos 13, 14, 15, 16 18, 25, and 26 performed so well. Absolutely wonderful!

Wonderfully Appropriate Interpretations

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 December 2012

Differences of opinion make the world go around, but I cannot fathom some of the poor reviews of this excellent set. Schiff here produces what I think he believes the composer intended, a thoughtful balanced melodic interpretation. OK you may prefer Brendel's more at times heavy handed style or go with Uchida's super occasionally overblown flow, but this set gives you the best all round knowledge and understanding of the work. The Camerata Academica Salzburg, under Vegh's outstanding direction, are the perfect vehicle for Schiff's style.

Puro Mozart en ambiente reservado y selecto

Reviewed in Spain on 31 October 2014

Decca presenta en 9 CDs los conciertos de piano y orquesta de Mozart con Andras Schiff al piano y la Camerata academica des mozarteum Salzburg dirigida por Sandor Vegh. No están los 27 conciertos; faltan los cuatro primeros y los conciertos nums. 7 y 10 (para dos y tres pianos) aunque se incluyen los Rondos K382 & K386. Las grabaciones datan del periodo 1984-1990, en sonido digital de amplio rango en una acústica clara y realista. Este cofre viene a competir por sonido digital con los de Zacharias (MDG) y Uchida/Tate (Philips/Decca), aunque en sonido analógico tiene serios competidores en Geza Anda (DG), Barenboim (Emi) y otros de sonido mixto -analógico/digital- como Perahia (Sony), Ashkenazy (Decca) o Brendel/Marriner (Decca o Eloquence).

Schiff y Vegh son devotos mozartianos, conocen a la perfección las entrañas de estos conciertos y nos sumergen en interpretaciones detalladas, pulcras, muy convincentes en su naturalidad y sinceridad, sin robar el espíritu mozartiano y sin aditivos extravagantes o superfluos. La ductilidad que proporciona una orquesta de cámara y el piano (un Bosendorfer de sonido perlado) se entrelazan con gracia y tersura en sonoridades muy agradables al oído. Todos los conciertos se exponen con pureza estilística y rigor interpretativo, sin que se descuelgue la más mínima fisura en su veraz planteamiento y en donde sobresale el aprovechamiento inteligente de los movimientos lentos. Hay magia comunicativa fruto del fuerte entendimiento entre solista y director, con auténticas gemas en los nums. 9, 18, 20, 22, 24 y 26. Schiff usa además sus propias cadenzas, compuestas en concreto para los conciertos nums. 21 y del 24 al 26.

A pesar de existir otras muchas alternativas la presente no le dejará indiferente por noble dedicación, intimismo y lujo de detalles.
