Music reviews of Richard Goode Performs Mozart
Music Review: Great performance of little known Mozart masterpeices
Rating: 5 Stars
This is the first all Mozart CD that I have ever purchased or really listened intently to. The pieces Goode chooses to perform are all interesting and full of great Mozartian flair and, and in some of the selections, lots of tender feeling and graceful touch. Goode performs them all very well, wrong notes or stutters never interrupt the wonder of the music. He is also very good at playing as the composer meant, not making his own wild interpretation of the pieces.
Description of Richard Goode Performs Mozart
This is a spectacular program devoted to Mozart's solo piano music that, frankly, reminds the listener of very little of Mozart's other solo piano music. The A minor Sonata is a troubling work: nervous and unsettled in the first movement, seemingly relaxed in the Andante which then takes an unexpectedly dark turn, and with a finale which defines "anxious." The Rondo, K. 511, is one of Mozart's most gorgeous--and saddest--works, a 10-minute meditation. A little minute-and-a-half gigue is Bachian; the March, K. 408, is brief and melodic, and the concluding Sonata, K. 533 in F Major, is at first a contrapuntal challenge, then a seeming improvisation, and lastly a dainty start with a theatrical finish. Richard Goode, one of the least sentimental pianists on the planet, still manages to get all of the composer's emotional points and changes across vividly--this is playing of the highest order. A must for any collection. --Robert LevineGigue CDs
