Ning Feng – Mozart: Complete Violin Cons [CD]

Violinist Ning Feng performs the Complete Mozart Violin Concertos with the Kammerakademie Potsdam on Channel Classics Records. These 5 concertos were written because Mozart’s father Leopold was frustrated at the thought of Wolfgang on his travels neglecting the violin as a possible source of income, as Mozart could himself play the violin beautifully, and he wrote brilliantly for the instrument. Composed mainly in 1775, these concertos display the theatrical twists and turns that were by now second nature to the 19-year old composer, with his thoughts and dreams perpetually fixed on opera and the drama.
