Mozart: Piano Concerto No. 20, K. 466; Piano Sonatas, K. 281 & 332

Seong-Jin Cho, winner of the International Chopin Competition 2015, has long been steeped in the music of Mozart. 'I always feel happy, I always enjoy it, when I play Mozart,' he says. 'For me, Mozart has everything: his music has so many layers.' For this album, Cho collaborates with Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe: perfect, sensitive partners in the dramatic D minor Concerto K 466. Two major-key piano sonatas provide contrast: the joyful K 281 and the technically demanding K 332. This is the perfect album for young aspiring classical pianists and Mozart aficionados.
