The multi-award-winning partnership of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and Sir Charles Mackerras is reunited in this second
collection of Mozart Symphonies featuring Nos 29, 31 (Paris), 32, 35 (Haffner) & 36 (Linz)’. This much anticipated recording
follows on from the astounding success of ‘Mozart Symphonies 38 – 41’ which resulted in him winning the Critics’ Award at
the 2009 BRIT Awards and led to ’Mozart Symphonies 38-41’ being named Disc of the Year at the 2009 BBC Music Magazine
Awards.
This recording includes both versions of the 2nd movement of the Paris Symphony; unusually Sir Charles requested
that the alternative version follows the original, rather than coming at the end of the album as an appendix.
An obsessive musical researcher, Sir Charles merged his considerable knowledge of these works with scores and
parts he has been editing from available sources for years for this recording.
Sir Charles Mackerras has won widespread praise for his fresh, vibrant and youthful Mozart performances, which
was named the classical recording of 2008 by the Sunday Times and HMV Choice. It also won a 2009 Midem
Award for Symphonic Works and a Choc de l’année Award from Le Monde de la Musique.
This recording re-unites the award-winning team, including producer James Mallinson, who has just been
nominated for a Grammy award.
Sir Charles Mackerras, the SCO’s Conductor Laureate, has produced numerous award-winning recordings,
performed fifty times at the Edinburgh Festival and in 2005 was the first recipient of the ‘Queen’s Medal for Music’.
“These are the finest versions of Mozart's greatest symphonies to have
appeared on disc in years.” The Guardian (on Mozart Symphonies 38-
41)
“Mackerras and the SCO triumph in the finest accounts of the Prague,
E flat, G minor and Jupiter ever recorded.” The Sunday Times (on 38-41)
