Mozart: The Last Symphonies Nos. 39, 40 & 41

Orchestre des Champs-Elysées;
Herreweghe, Philippe

LPH 011

Written one after the other in the space of just three months and with unprecedented energy, Mozart’s last three symphonies carry within them the aesthetic ideal of their composer, touched by a grace that is already pre-Romantic, and thus form an exemplary musical testament. The Orchestre des Champs-Élysées, a pioneering collective among period-instrument orchestras, reveals a richness, a modernity, a visionary complexity that prepares the way for the Beethovenian revolution. The approach of the orchestra founded and conducted by Philippe Herreweghe is to explore in depth the sonority and the motor rhythms of the symphonic writing of a Mozart here at the height of his powers. To record this Mozart trilogy is a bold undertaking for any musician, and always an extraordinary event for the public!
