Myra Hess - Mozart Concerto in E flat KV 449

[@helgeevju]

This remains my favorite recording of this rather short, and wonderful concerto, so inspiredly played by the great Dame Myra. She indeed brings out its operatic associations, particularly anticipating "Figaro": the first movement the conflict of the 2nd act trio, the second a moving portrait of the suffering Countess, with the deep sighs and occasional tears (at the little staccati). And the finale somehow sums up the entire opera in a nutshell!

Very interesting, but for me first and third movements are associated with childhood and games for children, but second movement is a tears and meeting of two young under the moon in a night garden.

Some pianist she was, with her golden playing.

Was not familiar. Great way to listen to this- Myra Hess. Thanks.

This is one of Mozart's most inspired concertoes (though not as well known)

The tempo markings are wrong. It should be 1. Allegro vivace, 3. Allegro ma non troppo
