Maurizio Pollini - Mozart: Piano Concertos Nos.23 & 19

This album from DGG is a very distinguished record indeed. Pollini is sparkling in the F major, and in the A major has a superbly poised, vibrant sense of line. Every phrase here seems to speak, and he is given excellent support from Böhm and the Vienna orchestra. There is no sense of haste in the outer movements; everything is admirably paced. Good, well-detailed and finely balanced recording make this one of the finest Mozart concerto records DGG have given us. Among the K.488s, this must be ranked as second-to-none.
