Simply wonderful! Sir András seems at his most happy and relaxed when playing with his own orchestra, Cappella Andrea Barca - and it is lovely seeing Yuuko Shiokawa in the 1st violins. Thank you so, so much.
they have a great concertmaster too - Erich Hobarth of the Concentus Musicus Wien. love this ensemble - like a chamber version of Claudio Abbado’s Lucerne Festival Orchestra
I can't beleive it.... Mozart! Plus Andras Schiff virtuoso with this wonderful Orchestra.. This is gorgeous.! Just music, but transdandanced! God is present in this tune...
Music as such, as a masterpiece, is certainly going strong. But what about the appeal it has? I look and see mostly old people on stage playing for old people in the audience. What next?
Ah!! Mozart, Andras completely at home here...opening bars of the third movement always stirs memories of the street scene when piano being transported in that great movie 'Amadeus'

Andras Schiff possède un toucher exceptionnel, D’une immense délicatesse et légèreté 😌qui conviennent tellement à l’oeuvre de Mozart. Son piano parle, chante. Un moment tellement précieux à l’écoute de ce grand pianiste.
Clever 1st Movement Cadenza. Subtly inserts the Adagio from Sonata K. 332. Brilliant! Actually laid my hands on a concert C. Bechstein at the NAMM Show in 2022. Treble and bass bridges are actually a single piece of wood. Incredible Piano!
i believe modern bechsteins are made entirely differently than the older ones. top quality still - thats for sure. im no piano expert, but i think the older ones of the 1890s and this scale design sound different. this particular piano i think was owned and played by Wilhelm Backhaus. just the same, sure is good to see and hear other makes of pianos used in concerts other than Steinway.

Grazie per la spiegazione così dettagliata che solo uno studioso può capire ma che mi aiuta a comprendere meglio lo sviluppo del concerto. Io ho 80 anni e purtroppo non ho potuto studiare pianoforte, però mi piace conoscere le dinamiche di ogni cosa anche se complesse. Un caro abbraccio da Brescia Italia ❤😂❤
I just noticed Schiff is playing a Bechstein. Schiff’s technique is superb, but perhaps the piano is also contributing to the overall lyrical quality of the performance?
I got suprised when I heard the theme from the second movement of a Mozart piano sonata in F major appear in this concertos first movements cadenza. That was a suprise.
Beautiful and I now feel that Yunchan Lim and The Fort Worth S. Orchestra at the 22 Clyburn did it comparably well. The only 2 recordings of this lovely concerto I have found. I feel that Prof Schiff with his vast experience and young Yunchan with his youthful verve and brilliant musicianship are brothers at heart with Bach and Mozart=would love them to get together.
It's a personal opinion on what composer's music touches your heart and moves you. As for me and my piano playing Beethoven Sonatas or Chopin Ballads and Nocturnes speak to my heart and soul and what I prefer playing the most.
anyone know who wrote the cadenza in the first movement? 12:56 is a quote from the slow movement of piano sonata 12 by Mozart which was written in the same key if I'm not mistaken ..so cool
קונצ'רטו שהוא קורנוקופיה של הפתעות מוסיקליות! משום-מה, מנגנים אותו לעתים רחוקות באולמות הקונצרטים וברדיו. כאן, בביצוע מופתי הן של התזמורת והן של הסולן.
quite a dry sound, but thats really the charm of the Bechsteins of the 1890s. the overall scale design of modern Bechsteins have changed almost completely. if im not mistaken, this particular piano was owned by Wilhelm Backhaus
Beautiful, wonderful performance!! A comment on the piano and the pianist: I'm noticing more and more that I appreciate Mr. Schiff more and more, but his personal Bosendorfer less-and-less, because the sound on the non-Bosendorfers seem to have so much more character and metallic depth than the super-woody BD. It took me a few minutes to finally glimpse that this is a Bechstein (I thought maybe a Steinway, but definitely very different from the BD) but I immediately knew not a Bosendorfer. I don't know what Mr. Schiff or anybody sees in the Bosendorfer. I like the Bechstein sound, but there is just something so "classic" about the Steinway timbre (Bechstein is in the ballpark). I think of it in two ways: the balance of wood and metal in the sound (almost pure wood in BD, Steinway and Bechstein close in this regard), and the sense of the piano case mixing the sound; in Bosendorfer, I feel like I'm just hearing the individual pitches, with heavily wooden timbre, with no sense of a container; in a Steinway I seem to hear the synergy of all the notes being combined in a box - in a good way - creating all kinds of colors, with that subtlely bell-like "metal" quality. Steinway sounds both modern (metal) and classic (wood) this way, in just the right balance.
Hey! At 34:47 he snuck in a couple of bars from the 27th piano concerto (K595) or actually more like the K596 song. Is that even allowed? It's like forward time travel. Do other soloists do that kind of thing?
Why doesn't he play Liszt? I was at the Academy in Budapest from 1991-1994 and he came into my room where I was practising and said he needed the room to teach in lol.
Although Mozart is my top favorit composer of all time, I don’t consider Beethoven and Bach as amateurs. In fact, Beethoven’s symphonies and piano/violin works are amazing.
