    Definitely one for organ lovers - sounding superb on my recently acquired HIFI-MAN Sundara headphones.

    Default Saturday morning sophistication.

    I purchased this in a charity shop not being familiar with Mozart piano concertos and I have always liked this one tonally, good highs and lows.

    If any one has personal recommendations along these lines I would appreciate them.

    I have the full set by Andra on vinyl which is very good (I have Barenboim’s set too though for me he was just going through the motions on that one) but for all Mozart - concertos, chamber music and the solo piano sonatas - my favourite has to be Ingrid Haebler. Anything you can get hold of is going to be superb. I have lots on vinyl from the Phillips Mozart Edition but the rest I have on CD.

    Uchida is pretty good too and lots about on vinyl but not as joyously wonderful as Haebler.

    Thanks for that I will look out for Ingrid Haebler especially Mozart Concerto no 21, you never know I may come across a boxed set.

    I got this one yesterday along with the previous record I played(Bach), from 2nd hand shop in Beer, and it is a cracker, Mint and the recording is superb, lovely dynamics and beautifully played. Very uplifting bit of Mozart. If you come across a good copy of this and like Mozart then buy it.
