Charles Mackerras

Background: This eagerly anticipated addition to the Scottish Chamber Orchestra series sees Mozart specialist Sir Charles Mackerras deliver a truly memorable recording of Mozart's four last symphonies. The ‘Vienna’ Symphonies show Mozart at his most diverse, both in musical content and in orchestral colouration.

Notable firsts include Mozart’s use of clarinets rather then traditional oboes as the main woodwind instrument in Symphony No.39 and the introduction of a new orchestral colour in the form of muted violins in the 'Jupiter'.
