Unique clarinet concerto, all others excellent too.......2006-09-30

I completely agree with the other reviewers who cite these performance as amongst the best of these pieces. Thomas Crawford and the orchestera play with a grace, lightness, beauty of tone, enthusiasm and love that's both infectious and unusual. And the soloists are all fine, all playing on instruments reconstructed from period models.

Special mention has to go to the unique version of the clarinet concerto. Soloist Eric Hoeprich reconstructed Mozart's original performance version for the bassett clarinet, and went so far as to build his own bassett clarinet based on an engraving of the one played by the concerto's original soloist, Anton Stadler. Not only does Hoeprich's instrument sound gorgeous and mellow, it permits him to play several passages an octave lower than we are used to hearing. The result is not only one of the most beautiful performances of this gorgeous piece I've heard, it is also one which, after the initial shock of hearing something unfamiliar, just sounds completely "right." Listening to other performances based on Mozarts' revision of the piece for standard clarinet, I am now aware of how Mozart had to split octaves on certain phrases and how much better it sounds in the original, "un-split" version. For this reason alone one should buy this set.

These performances are also available in a the complete set of the wind concerti, also available through Amazon-associated vendors. Please see my review there for additional comments, particularly on the horn concerti, which also have unique features.

Very very highly recommended.

A little known performance gem.......2006-09-29

This is an exceptional recording: the orginal instrument sound is warm and clear simultaneously, and the technical skill is without peer. The various soloists (clarinet, oboe, bassoon) are about as good anybody gets on these concerti. There are two other volumes in this Mozart wind concerti set, and they include the horn concerti. The quality never flags.
Thomas Crawford and the Old Fairfield Academy deserve to have hit the "big time" of period instrument orchestras. I can't figure out why they are so little known. (The orchestra changed its named in 1999 to American Classical Orchestra and plays 17th-early 19th century music -- see their website at [...].) Even though this volume (and its two companions) was made early in their career, based on these Mozart concerti I'd buy just about anything this group puts out, past and present.

Wonderful Readings of Some of Mozarts Finest Works.......2003-05-23

I was given this cd with the other two by a friend. Thank goodness she gave it to me! This cd is wonderful. The playing is excellent and the sound is very high quality. Being a clarinettist, I personally enjoyed the clarinet concerto. Eric Hoperich's tone is divine. Everyone thinks that the Sabine Meyer recording of the clarinet concerto is so wonderful, well I think this is MUCH better. Hoperich puts so much feeling into the music, much more than Meyer. The other concertos on this cd are also very, very good. The bassoon concerto is the best recording I have heard in a very long time. Same with the oboe concerto. So, I you are a Mozart enthusiast, or just someone who wants to discover the world of classical music, this cd is for you. It is absolutley wonderful, and well worth the price.

Customer Reviews:

Excellent and unique........2006-09-30

This is one of the best collections of Mozart's wind concerti played on original instruments. Thomas Crawford's Orchestra of the Old Fairfield Academy plays with beauty, gorgeous tone, transparency, grace, enthusiasm and apparent love of the music. The soloists are without exception excellent, and play either on original instruments or (more commonly) on instruments reconstructed from period models. Sandra Miller does a wonderful job on the flute concerti (playing with a sweetness and love unusual in performances of these pieces), as does Marc Schachman on the oboe concerti and Dennis Godburn on the bassoon.

But special mention has to go to the two unique concerti groups in this release: the clarinet concerto and the horn concerti. For the clarinet concerto, soloist Eric Hoeprich reconstructed Mozart's original performance version for the bassett clarinet, and went so far as to build his own bassett clarinet based on an engraving of the one played by the concerto's original soloist, Anton Stadler. Not only does Hoeprich's instrument sound gorgeous and mellow, it permits him to play several passages an octave lower than we are used to hearing. The result is not only one of the most beautiful performances of this gorgeous piece I've heard, it is also one which, after the initial shock of hearing something unfamiliar, just sounds completely "right." Listening to other performances based on Mozarts' revision of the piece for standard clarinet, I am now aware of how Mozart had to split octaves on certain phrases and how much better it sounds in the original, "un-split" version. For this reason alone one should buy this set.

The horn concerti were also gone over, revised based on Mozart's autograph versions where available, and in some cases reconstructed and rescored by Mozart specialist Robert Levin. Levin has played improvisations on Mozart's piano pieces and he seems to have absorbed the composer's musical language and spirit to an astonishing degree. The pieces sound new and fresh, in many cases more "Mozartian" than the versions we've come to know (several of which involved revisions by Mozart's pupil Sussmayer -- I've got to say Levin seems to know Mozart better than Sussmayer did!). The performances by RJ Kelly and the orchestra are all first-rate. In addition, the disc includes a separate performance of the Rondo-Allegro to the Concerto K412 which includes Mozart's written running commentary of insults to the original soloist Joseph Luetgeb -- fun to listen to once at least.

I'm sorry to see this set is not as easily available as it once was. It really should be at the top of your list for all of these concerti. Buy it if you can find it.

Excellent classical music collection!.......2003-06-01

I was first exposed to this CD set as part of a fine arts class in college, and it soon became a treasured part of my collection. This four CD set includes an array of classical music that spans a variety of composers and eras. This is an economic and valuable way to either begin exploring classical music, or an easy way of assembling well arranged CDs into one set.
