Violin Concerto No. 3 in G major, K216 Violin Concerto No. 4 in D major, K218 Sinfonia Concertante in E flat major for violin and viola, K364
Mozart’s Violin Concertos need little introduction from No. 3 in G major featuring the 19-year-old Mozart at his elegant, witty and beguilingly changeable best, to the Sinfonia Concertante – the string concerto masterpiece – with its masterly mixture of noble strength and tender lyricism, these are some of Mozart’s most well -known and best-loved works. Handel and Haydn Society with their inspirational Concertmaster, Aisslinn Nosky, bring Mozart’s musical magic to life in these live recordings from Boston’s glorious Symphony Hall.
Hailed as “superb” by The New York Times, Canadian violinist Aisslinn Nosky has a reputation for being one of the most dynamic and versatile violinists of her generation. As concertmaster of the Handel and Haydn Society she appears on a number of the ensemble’s recordings for CORO. With the Eybler Quartet she has also released two albums of Beethoven String Quartets for the label.
Handel and Haydn Society is America's oldest continuously operating arts organisation. Harry Christophers has been Artistic Director since 2008 during which time the Society has released 14 recordings on CORO including Haydn’s Creation, all six of his ‘Paris’ Symphonies, Mozart’s Requiem and Handel’s Messiah, and a Christmas album - ‘Joy to the World’ - celebrating America’s favourite festive tunes.
