Logo for Radio 3 Lunchtime Concert - The Genius of Mozart - Francesco Piemontesi

Our lunchtime exploration of Mozart's Concertos continues with the first in a series of three concerts from Studio 7 in Manchester. The BBC Philharmonic is joined by New Generation Artist Francesco Piemontesi for one of the six piano concertos Mozart wrote in 1784, his annus mirabilis for composing this series of works. He also plays one of the set of Sonatas written in Munich a decade earlier and this live broadcast begins with a dark masterpiece, the Adagio and Fugue in C minor, for strings. MOZART Adagio and fugue in C minor (K546) Piano Sonata in E flat (K282) Piano Concerto No. 17 in G (K453) BBC Philharmonic Antonello Manacorda (conductor) Francesco Piemotesi (piano).
