Info for MOZART: Concertos pour flûte



1st piccolo version of these works for flute and orchestra by Mozart. The piccolo interpretation and the quality of the recording give a particularly interesting sound. The purity of the solo part is brought out by the interpretation of Jean-Louis Beaumadier, recognised as one of the best piccolo players in the world, if not the best. Recorded at the Lorelei Saal in Vienna (Austria)
