fine authentic performances
The more I get to like Mozart, the more I realize that one of the reasons I wasn't a big fan to begin with was the nature of the recordings I was hearing. Mozart was, and is, often sold with the idea that this music was beautiful, sweet, heavenly... all well and good, but that too regularly translates into saccharine and soporific. Fortunately, recordings like this one have a sharpness to them that make you think more about the music and less about relaxing.
