The early Viennese concertos by Mozart are dismissed by many as being not very important works, but they contain that essence of Mozart in its purest form.
About 30 years ago I attended a piano recital in Scloss Rheinbeck outside Hamburg - late sonatas by Beethoven and Schubert - and was surprised that the excellent performer was very young considering the weight of the program. I noted the name Stefan Vladar, so it's a joy to hear him now in one of my favorite Mozart concertos; the "viola concerto" as my father called it, from that insistent viola figure in the 1st movement. It is played here without the optional pairs of oboes and horns, and Vladar makes up for their absence by playing more or less their parts in the tuttis. The music gets an added intimacy.
Thank you for sharing with us this wonderful perfomance. Just listen to these divine sounds and enjoy them. It is as if Mozart speeks to us from his far beyond.
I like a lot of composers. And many of them had written more "complicated " music. But still, in the "simplicity" of Mozart, I find my spot in the universe.
Some people always look for the ugly, negative and destructive side side of life; what I see and and hear is beautiful music, very well payed by professional doing their best. Thank your god, if you have one, for so much beauty reaching you for so cheap you at the cost of a few computer key strokes!
The music's the thing! The playing is very well done. The orchestra is very professional, and performs its role beautifully. One of my favorite Mozart concertos from the the early 1780's. Bravo! Thank you for the video.
The original cadenza to the 2nd movement (of 2 alternatives) aforeshadows Beethoven's wonderful 4th concerto. I am grateful to Vladar for choosing this above the more dramatic and brilliant one, it fits in with the intimate approach.
Avrotros Klassiek is the best!!!! Awesome videos, exceptional quality. Always a joy to watch and listen to their videos. Thanks Avrotros Klassiek... Keep them coming. You are the best!!! BTW... I love this performance of the 12th. Outstanding.
Très émouvant, un pianiste/chef d'orchestre Autrichien qui joue Mozart à près de 250 ans d'intervalle. On sent qu'il soupèse chaque touche du clavier qui deviendra une note, tout mouvement ou intention en sachant que le maître l'observe depuis là-haut! 🥰
Hi Cal - Most classical pieces are not really songs in the way you'd normally think of a song. Instead, each section is called a "movement". The composer gives each movement a descriptive title based on the tempo (speed) and/or characteristics like a dance rhythm such as 'minuet', or an emotion like sadness or pleasure. These movement titles are intended to help the performing musicians understand how the composer wants the music to be played. This particular concerto has the following movement names that Mozart wrote down to describe the tempo at which each should be played: Allegro, Andante and Allegretto. These Italian terms roughly translate to 'fast, quickly, and bright (1st movement)', 'at a walking pace (2nd movement)' and 'a little faster than Andante (3rd movement)', respectively. Hope this helps!
It can be played without oboes and horns, as it like no's 11 and 13, also designed to be played in a salon, with just a very small string orchestra, i myself do prefer the addition with the woodwind.

No one could write piano concerti like this

I saw Stefan Vladar play this concerto last week at Teatro Colón (Buenos Aires). It was a wonderful experience! Thank you for sharing this one.
Totally amazing!! Virtuouso !!! One of my favorite concertos to listen to.

Why is the front of the stage roped off? Don't think you would have to worry about people rushing the stage at this concert..lol
The texture is smothered by the pedal and even the themes are often obscured in the sea of sustain. The obbligato is similarly superfluous.
i like it.
12:16 *cough
MOZART devenu cavalier....
What is the date of this concerto?
Scholars say it was written in the fall of 1782
What is the first song called?

I saw something very scary at 15:10, in the lap of the lady wearing a deep purple jacket in the 3rd row
Shouldn't this concerto include oboes and horns? Something seems missing.
Ich vermisse nichts - es ist alles wunderbar!

They probably didn't want to pay their fees! Haha!

WHO IS COUGHING ??!!
heard it around 17;42

Gesture needs a lot of refinement, while the music sounds not too bad.
You one of those then who attends music concerts for gestures ?!!!!!!
Performer's back to the audience is not a good view.
What a resonance pedal!! Sorry, but i didn't like it
Another pianist directing an orchestra. Waving his hands unceremoniously. 😂
Thilo Abend 😎 Thanks for reminding me.
Sorry, I cannot much appreciate this pseudo-Mozartian performance.
Tell me, what is pseudo about the performance?
