Description:

[Mozarts Concertos, as Interpreted by Marie-Ange Gucci]Born in Albania in 1997, Marie-Ange Gucci entered the Paris Conservatoire at the age of 13 after skipping a grade. A pianist who has garnered attention across Europe and left a vivid impression in Japan through performances at La Folle Journe and with the NHK Symphony Orchestra, she now presents her long-awaited concerto recording. The album features the dramatic No. 20, which employs a minor key and foreshadows the Romantic era, and No. 22, which introduced the clarinet for the first time and is imbued with a warm, soft resonance. Gucci masterfully plays the legendary Bsendorfer 280VC, vividly capturing the essence of the works through an intellectual interpretation marked by overwhelming color and superb insight. Under the baton of Howard Griffiths, she performs in close collaboration with the prestigious Salzburg Mozarteum Orchestra
