Nikolaj Znaider - Mozart: Violin Concertos Nos.1, 2 & 3

Taking on the roles of both conductor and soloist, Nikolaj Znaider concludes his Mozart series on LSO Live with the great composer's first three concertos for the violin. While they were penned before he was even out of his teens, the music of Mozart's violin concertos is as characteristically elegant and uplifting as anything he would ever write. Znaider teases out the wit and charm in these delightful pieces, leading the virtuoso players of the London Symphony Orchestra as Mozart would have done, from the violin.
