Mozart : Gran Partita

Moonwinds, cond. Joan Enric Lluna

Along with contemporaries,. Mozart was often called upon to fulfill the aristocracy's musical requests destined for all kinds of society events. He, for sure, knew how to provide a much profounder dimension to any genre which did not normally have too many expectations placed upon it and the gran partita, without losing its playful aim, is a superb example of this. In a similar way, the divertimentos of Martín y Soler on Una cosa rara, and of Went on Die 'Entfübrung aus dem Serail', fill out an accurate portrait of what was, in 18th century, music meant for nobles.
