Mozart: The Violin Concertos, Capuçon (2-CD)
Mozart: The Violin Concertos, Capuçon (2-CD)
“[Capuçon] is a superb violinist in a particular more of expressiveness: you are never likely to hear a sweeter, more finely spun, more precisely tuned sound.” — BBC Music Magazine
Assuming the dual role of soloist and director, Renaud Capuçon leads the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne — of which he is Artistic Director — in the violin concertos of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. These works have been at the heart of the ensemble’s repertoire since its founding in 1942, and this collection is a vibrant new addition to their catalog. In each work, Capuçon turns to the subtle musical complexities of the concertos armed with a feeling for their spontaneity and determination to bring them to life in the moment.
