Mozart Week 2024

This concert recording from Mozart Week 2024 focuses on Wolfgang Amade Mozart's and Anton Reicha's horn quintets, two major works of a genre that has been very rarely cultivated throughout music history. After the Prague-born composer, music theorist and pedagogue Anton Reicha had already briefly tried his luck in Paris in 1799, he finally settled in the French metropolis in 1808. The Horn Quintet in E major op. 106 is one of his last compositions. It is juxtaposed with Mozart's Rondo and the Horn Quintet. The Baborak Ensemble played at this year's Mozart Week in Salzburg, where this recording was made.
