Emmanuel Pahud - Mozart Stories

"Mozart is the reason why I became a musician," says flautist Emmanuel Pahud, who - like Mozart - was born on January 27th. He first became captivated by the composer's music when he was just five years old. In the words of the Baltimore Sun he plays it "with an astonishing array of subtly moulded sounds, superb breath control, flawless articulation and, above all, consistently eloquent phrasing." With pianist Éric Le Sage, Pahud performs several Sonatas, which Mozart originally composed for violin and piano.
