Leopold Mozart: Complete Horn Concertos / Herman Jeurissen

Notes & Reviews:

Before the birth of his son Wolfgang and the completion of his famous violin course of 1756, Leopold Mozart featured horns in his music. The father of the famous Salzburg composer wrote a number of works for horn and chamber orchestra during the first half of the eighteenth century - robust and vibrant genre pieces for the entertainment of members of the nobility. Digital recording technique was still in its early days when the MDG sound engineers set up their microphones in the Abbey Church in The Hague. Later mixing of the various channels was not an option. The Sinfonia da caccia therefore had to be practiced a number of times until this extraordinary composition for four horns, string orchestra, and shot gun was got just right.
