Overview

Rudolf Serkin, one of the 20th century's most revered pianists, brings his virtuosity to Mozart’s celebrated piano concertos and charming lighter works in this BBC Legends release. Accompanied by the English Chamber Orchestra under Alexander Schneider, this album offers a breathtaking performance of Piano Concerto No. 14 in E flat major (K449) and Piano Concerto No. 21 in C major (K467), including the well-loved Andante from the latter. Serkin’s interpretation is further complemented by an elegant performance of Mozart’s March in D Major and the Six German Dances, arranged for piano and orchestra.
