Mozart: Symphonies Nos. 36 "Linz" & 38 "Prague" (Ensemble Resonanz, Riccardo Minasi) (CD)

After an album devoted to the final trilogy, Riccardo Minasi and Ensemble Resonanz continue their exploration of Mozart’s symphonies.

These formidably expressive, incandescent interpretations give us the impression we are discovering the works for the first time.

"Minasi and his expert 35-strong band (modern instruments, period ethos) play up the music’s disruptive aspects for all their worth. With lean, vibrato-light strings and assertive wind and brass, tutti textures have an abrasive clarity." Gramophone
