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.
Sir Charles's fruitful partnership with the SCO has been evident since their highly successful recording of "Mozart Requiem" (CKD211) was received to side critical acclaim in 2003. Their special relationship and musical synchronicity makes "Mozart Symphonies Nos. 38-41" equally exhilarating.
The SCO's previous Mozart recordings have been critically acclaimed: "Mozart Serenades" and "Mozart Wind Concertos" each consistently received four and five star reviews and BBC Music Magazine named Sir Charles Mackerras's "Mozart Requiem" a 'benchmark recording' in January 2003.
