Mozart: Concertos K.453, K.482, etc - REVIEW

Mozart: Concertos in G, K.453; in E flat, K.482. Rondo in A, K.386
Kristian Bezuidenhout (fortepiano); Freiburg Baroque Orchestra, Petra Mullejans (leader)
Harmonia Mundi HMC902147
Bezuidenhout has found time alongside his emerging Mozart sonata cycle to record two of the composer's most delicious concertos, and the result is entirely successful. His playing is warm and intuitive - he can be heard discretely joining in some of the tutti passages, to great effect - and the pairing with this Prince of ensembles is well-nigh perfect. Recorded sound is excellent, though with an audible edit or two.
