    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 October 2009

    Brendel is coming to be my favourite in Mozart's piano concertos. I have accepted for many years the view of professional reviewers that Perahia is tops in this genre but now I have my own thoughts on that. Perahia is, of course, a delight and anyone who has his recordings should never part with them. However, I have run comparisons of various recordings of Mozart's concertos - Ashkenazy, Perahia, Anda, Schiff, Uchida, Barenboim, Casadesus, and I find that there is a vitality about Brendel's playing which is sometimes missing with the others. Perhaps,for me, his greatest rival is Ashkenazy.

    Some will contend for the poetry of the playing of other pianists and I accept that, but Brendel's music-making is far from being 'driven.' He does not miss the poetry in Mozart but he has that along with life and verve. `No doubt some of the credit for this must go to Neville Marriner and his Academy of St Martin's. Their playing is every bit as distinguished as Brendel's.

    This is great value, five great concertos plus two concert rondos. The complete recordings were made from 1970-1984 but an earlier Penguin Guide said that " the transfers are of the very highest quality, as is the playing of The Academy of St Martin's In The Fields under Neville Marriner." Now that the great man has retired, we have lost one of the truly great pianists of our times and these recordings will become even more valuable. Not to be missed.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Equally Calming and Exciting
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 November 2020
    Verified Purchase
    This is such a mellow, calming collection of piano concertos, with the occasional excitement factor.

    "Piano Concerto #19 in F, K 459" sets the mood excellently (particularly the Allegretto). The pace picks up in "Piano Concerto #20 in D Minor, K 466", particularly in the Allegro and the Allegro Assai, which leads nicely into my favourite sequence, stretching from "Rondo in D, K 382" to "Piano Concerto #23 in A, K 488" to "Piano Concerto #21 in C, K 467".

    "Piano Concerto #24 in C Minor, K 491" is also nice, particularly the Allegretto, and "Rondo in A, K 386" closes the proceedings grandly.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Part One completes classic set
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 May 2021
    Verified Purchase
    It's been twenty-five years or so since I bought the Brendel/ASMF part 2 selection of Mozart piano concertos. Goodness knows why it's taken me so long to acquire Part 1 but when I found to my surprise that it was still possible to complete the set, I leapt at it. I'm not disappointed. These performances still seem ideal in poise and scale, rising to the drama of the minor-key Nos. 20 & 24, but not missing the charm of No 19, for example. Analogue 1970s/80s sound, digitally remastered, still sounds perfectly acceptable.

    Reviewed in the United States on 6 May 2010
    Verified Purchase
    My first CD purchase of Mozart piano concertos featured the brilliant Annie Fischer. The set consisted of concerto's 20, 21, 22, and 23. It was on EMI's Seraphim label at a cost of only four dollars. Wolfgang Sawallish and Sir Adrian Boult led the Phiharmonia Orchestra in big and bold fashion while Fischer's dynamic playing made for very memorable interpretations of these oft performed gems. It has been about fifteen years since acquiring that set. I have heard several pianists performing these works during those years, both live and on CD.
    I like Alfred Brendel's approach to the Mozart concerto's very much. He is not affraid to apply firmness or strike the keys a little harder than many pianists do. This music can take it! Some players, I feel, are too precious with these masterpieces. Brendel's analytical style, coupled with his lyrical virtuosity are cogently accompanied by Sir Neville Marriner and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. Marriner is an elegant Mozartian. He provides grace and lucidity of line with plenty of acceleration wene need be applied. There are times when the music could use more dramatic engagement. Sometimes it seems a little too polished. If you like this approach, you most likely will revel in it's many fine qualities.
    Number 19 is very good. I've heard several recordings of this and it sometimes strikes me as a bit less inspired than some of the others. Brendel and Marriner's academy made me realize that while this may not be my favorite Mozart concerto, it certainly is a great one. Brendel's combination of verve and sensitivity had me listening to it with new ears.
    Number 20 in D minor has been recorded oodles of times (and re and re-re recorded by some). Brendels rhythmic snap and firm control is refreshing for those who may be a bit tired of the languid stylings of many other players. Marriners orchestra is fastidious in this one. Perhaps too much so. Chamber-like lucidity grounds some of the music. There is not much lengthening of the lines. But it is a very interesting reading. The music can be heard in vivid detail. Technically, it is impressive.
    Number 21 in C Major is perhaps the most well known of all the concertos. This is a great reading from beginning to end. It has everything. Graceful majesty in the first movement. Melting beauty in the famous Andante. Excitement and poise in the third movement. Perfect balance between orchestra and soloist. Simply stunning!
    Number 23 is another great reading. This has been sighted by many critics to be one of the best recordings of the 23rd concerto available today. I could not disagree with them.
    Number 24 in C minor is given a very good performance. This is not quite as dark as the more recent rendering performed by Evgeny Kissin (with Colin Davis and the LSO on EMI). Brendel plays eloquently with the clean and precise ASMF providing solid support. I love Glenn Gould's polymorphic version of 24. He added some left hand parts to muscle it up a bit. A renegade reading of sorts. Call it an oddity.
    The rondo in D is given three separate tracks. I have heard several recordings of this delightful piece. Brendel et.al. are superb. Of the dozen or so I have heard, this is my favorite. The rondo in A is as impressively done as the one in D. Is there any room for improvement in this music?
    There are many great CD's to consider in this repertoire. And, there are many wonderful performances. I can heartily recommend this set. Thanks for reading my review and good luck finding the recordings that provide you the utmost joy! Thanks again!

    Aber nicht nur WAM ist ein Superstar sondern auch Alfred Brendel und St.Martins in the Fields Orchester. Diese Musik atmet und lebt als wenn sie erst vor wenigen Tagen entstanden wäre. Besonders Klavierkonzert 20 in d-moll zeigt die zarte Seite vom WAM und auch von Alfred Brendel am Flügel. Keiner spielt dieses Werk so einfühlsam.
