• Frank Peter Zimmermann - one of the best Violinists of his time.
• Zimmermann’s triumphant return to Mozart's concertos since his legendary EMI-recordings from over 30 years ago. 
• The first of three installments which will contain, when completed, all of Mozart’s works for concertante violin. 

Today, when Frank Peter Zimmermann says that Mozart has always been easy for him, he needs only call to mind his debut concert at the age of ten – when he played Mozart's G major Concerto K. 216; or when, some 30 years ago, as a fresh 20-year-old, the same FPZ  made his first recording of the five concertos for EMI; and then if one factors in that over the years that each of these Mozart works has passed through his hands nearly 300 times in concert, then one can begin to appreciate the intense physical and spiritual experience that Frank Peter Zimmermann brings to these new recordings.

One will immediately hear on this CD the experience that a master can bring to these works, because no one else plays these works with the same incredible, almost balletic, weightless elegance and rich tone, reaching a degree of intimacy, without any obstacle between the performer and the listener, as does Frank Peter Zimmermann.  Mozart’s every wish is perfectly fulfilled! The Chamber Orchestra of the Symphony Orchestra of the Bavarian broadcasting company serves both masters admirably.

Frank Peter Zimmermann‘s Mozart edition will be released on 3 CDs; the second CD will be released in February, 2016 and will include the Sinfonia concertante (with Antoine Tamestit), the Violin Concerto No. 2 D Major K. 211, the Rondo in B-flat Major KV 269 as well as the Haffner Serenade K. 250 in which the violin plays a big role. The third CD is planned for February, 2017 and will contain the Concertone for two violins, the Violin Concerto No. 5 and the Kassation K. 63.

The String Quartet No. 16 in E flat major, K. 428/421b, was composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. This is the third of the Haydn Quartets, a set of six string quartets he wrote during his first few years in Vienna and later dedicated to Joseph Haydn.

It is in four movements:

I. Allegro non troppo
II. Andante con moto
III. Menuetto & Trio
IV. Allegro vivace

The first movement is highly chromatic, with the chromaticized bridge theme in the exposition being one of several examples, the end of the exposition being another.

The slow movement "invokes ... the slow movement of Haydn's Op. 20 No. 1. The ostentatious dissonances of its opening almost have an antique flavour, caused by the collision of semitonal ascents and descents, and this strongly suggests the opening subject of the first movement, so surprisingly isolated there." Other commentators hear it as pointing forward to Johannes Brahms.

Throughout the third movement Mozart "makes use of a pedal point in the bass, thus giving the music an entrancing rustic effect." The last movement "can best be described as being an abridged rondo form."

Quartet No. 16 in E-Flat Major, K. 428: IV. Allegro Vivace Assai

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart completed his Symphony No. 41 in C major, K. 551, on 10 August 1788. It was the last symphony that he composed, and also the longest.

The work is nicknamed the Jupiter Symphony. This name stems not from Mozart but rather was likely coined by the impresario Johann Peter Salomon in an early arrangement for piano.

The four movements are arranged in the traditional symphonic form of the Classical era:

Allegro vivace, 4/4
Andante cantabile, 3/4 in F major
Menuetto: Allegretto - Trio, 3/4
Molto allegro, 2/2

The symphony typically has a duration of about 33 minutes.

The third movement, a Menuetto marked allegretto is similar to a Ländler, a popular Austrian folk dance form. Midway through the movement there is a chromatic progression in which sparse imitative textures are presented by the woodwinds (bars 43 to 51) before the full orchestra returns. 

In the trio section of the movement, the four-note figure that will form the main theme of the last movement appears prominently (bars 68 to 71), but on the seventh degree of the scale rather than the first, and in a minor key rather than a major, giving it a very different character.
