A favorite piece of mine.

I greatly prefer it to the Brahms.

Now something to get the subs rumbling…

The Freiburg Baroque Orchestra is doing a series of the Mozart Piano concertos with K Bezuidenhout as soloist. I have them all and the sound is excellent (24/96) as are the performances.

Wilms was highly regarded in his own time, even compared to Beethoven. His music then fell into obscurity but has been rediscovered recently. There are lots of good recordings of him around, but I like this one particularly because in the sinfonie concertante you can clearly hear the solo instruments playing against the orchestra. Excellent sound (24/96} and performance.
