RECORDING INFORMATION
Romanian-born Clara Haskil was acknowledged as the leading Mozart player of her time. Her style embodied delicate transparency and sensitive inspiration.

Clara Haskil’s name will forever be associated with the works of Mozart and here are her recordings of two of the more popular Mozart piano concertos. And bear in mind that in her time these pieces weren’t obvious standard repertoire as they are now, which makes listening to them extra interesting.

Listening to these relatively old recordings will be more enjoyable than it ever has been thanks to the 24 bits-96kHz transfers from the original tapes.
