Violin Concerto [No. 5] in A major, K. 219

For the Urtext edition of the three great Mozart Violin Concertos K. 216, 218 and 219, three high-caliber experts came together: Mozart scholar Cliff Eisen as editor, internationally renowned concertmaster and conductor Andrew Manze as the author of stylistically authentic and brilliantly virtuoso cadenzas, and Werner Breig as the creator of the transparent piano reduction that wonderfully suite every accompanists fingers. The new editions are based on Eisens competent, well-grounded source evaluation. His decisions always do justice to the requirements of historical performance practice and occsionally yield some rather extraordinary results.
