Great Mozart playing!

"Andre Previn may not be a pianist in the same league as the great DeLarrocha, but I am convinced that having him as a second piano partner in these works enticed the aging Larrocha to play with much more energy than she does on her other RCA Mozart sonata and concerto recordings. I've found those to be surprisingly dull in terms of both the performances and the sound.



The basic tempos in both works are just right-not too slow or fast, and the playing itself is quite brilliant. The sound is good, but not quite in the same league as Uchida's Mozart concerto cycle on Phillips. Phillips is really putting its competitors to shame when it comes to the excellence in sound of their classical recordings.



However, being somewhat of an audiophile, I play very close attention to these things, and such concerns may not bother the general listener."

Having a great time

"I enjoy this most of the few dual piano selections that I own. I find this recording clear, crisp and well done."
