Mozart piano concerti

[leyton]

Well, I have been playing piano for a long time but have oddly enough just picked up my first Mozart piano concerto that I'm serious about learning. No 23 in A major / K 488.

What are your favorite Mozart piano concertos? My knowledge of them is limited, but I am especially fond of No 23 in A Major and also No 20 in D minor.

1. Oh my!

I is hard to pick a favorite. I love the 20yh (D minor) especially what he does in the second movement - the 21st of course _ but the second movement has overplayed nearly as much as {Pacebel's cannon)

The 27th is grand as well - your K 488 is terrific. I'd love to heare you play it.

2. K488...

I love all the Mozart piano concerti, but have a very special place in my heart for K488. Cosmic. Even in a major key there's that saddness. Daaaaa daaaa daaaa da da da da da daaa daaa daaa da daaaaa da d daa. Hope you learn to play it well!

3. Daaa (daaa daaa) da da da Daaa (daaa daaa)

da da da daaa da da da da da da da da da da da...

4. #20 in D minor, K466, is as close to perfection as music can get.

I can imagine God putting it in His CD player when warming up to create the Universe.

5. 23, 26, 21, 15

etc.

Any Fav soloists? I like Robert Levin.
