Elegance and drama from the pens of two contemporary masters

MOZART Piano Concerto No 23 in A major K488

Steven Devine – fortepiano / director

Born in the same year as Mozart (1756), Stockholm-based Joseph Kraus is often referred to as ‘the Swedish Mozart’, and yet it is a rare treat to hear music by the two composers played side by side. Kraus’ dramatic Symphony in C minor strikes a powerful chord in this concert which contrasts two composers whose creative genius endures through time. Leading fortepianist Steven Devine directs the OAE in a programme that culminates with Mozart’s masterful Piano Concerto No 23.
