Petroc Trelawny introduces an all-Mozart concert recorded at the Herbst Theater in San Francisco featuring the Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, one of America's finest period instrument ensembles. The concert opens with incidental music written for the play Thamos, King of Egypt, one of the composer's early forays into music for the theatre. The fortepiano supremo Robert Levin joins the orchestra for the innovative Piano Concerto in D minor and also plays the concerto movement only recently attributed to a seven-year old-Mozart. The programme concludes with Mozart's majestic final symphony, the 'Jupiter'. Nicholas McGegan conducts.
