In this programme structured around major pieces composed in the last ten years of Mozart’s life, Anna Prohaska and Riccardo Minasi paint a bracingly complex portrait of the Salzburger after his move to Vienna, subtly blending the maestro’s historical expertise with the vigour and freshness of Resonanz, here in electrifying form.
Recorded in October 2022 at Friedrich-Ebert-Halle, Hamburg, Germany.
