Mitsuko Uchida is one of the finest interpreters of Mozart's piano music. She brings to this music a lightness and delicacy that fits it perfectly.
"Ask anyone interested in piano music who they'd most like to hear playing Mozart, and many would answer Mitsuko Uchida. That's been true to some extent ever since she made her name in London in the early 1980s with - a rarity then - a complete cycle of his sonatas at the Wigmore Hall. Her first inclination had been to perform the complete Schubert sonatas.
"But I knew that had been done by Brendel and Lupu, and I went to those concerts and they were wonderful. Then I looked at Mozart, and thought nobody has done him for God knows how long - and then I talked to musician friends, who said the reason was because some of the sonatas were weak. I thought - ha! Then I'm gonna show 'em!" (The Guardian)
A wonderful legacy recording from Mitsuko Uchida, proving again that her renditions of Mozarts are a reference for generations to come.
