Academy of Ancient Music (AAM) continues a celebrated project to record Mozart's complete works for keyboard and orchestra, with this tenth volume of the series. Together with renowned scholar-pianist Robert Levin, and directed by Laurence Cummings and Bojan Čičić, AAM presents the Church Sonata No 17 alongside the Piano Concerto No 5 - Mozart's first original keyboard concerto - both for orchestra and organ. The three K 107 concertos are joined by a concerto movement from the music book of Mozart's sister, Nannerl, believed to have been drafted by Mozart as a young child, and completed here by Robert Levin. The hardback CD package is accompanied by comprehensive notes commissioned specially for the album.
Recorded in London, UK at St Jude on the Hill, 8-9 December 2021 and at Christ's Chapel of Alleyn's College of God’s Gift, Dulwich, 18-20 August 2022.
