More Info:

The Open Chamber Orchestra of Paris perform the concertos in chamber form, with Maestro Yair Benaim - who conducts the earlier concertos from the podium in the traditional manner - taking the first violin part, achieving a still closer assimilation with pianist Dana Ciocarlie, throwing into greater relief the spirited lucidity of her playing and demonstrating the versatility of these musicians, both individually and as an ensemble. The sound of the concertos when performed this way is at once slenderer and lither. What one may feel is lost when the works are divested of their mellifluous woodwind colours is more than compensated for by the greater clarity of the ingenious interplay of lines and voices in Mozart's conception
