For her tenth album on Sony Classical, Khatia Buniatishvili joins an iconic orchestra in performances of two cherished piano concertos by Mozart, her first ever album dedicated to the composer. The recording will be released on October 4, 2024.
After a string of releases on Sony Classical that have redefined the parameters of the classical recital album, Khatia Buniatishvili is returning to tradition with a recording of two of Mozart’s most sublime late piano concertos.
In his Piano Concertos Nos 20 and 23, Mozart takes the genre of the concerto to new heights of sophistication and communicative power. The works come from the cherished crop of late piano concertos that are among the jewels of Mozart’s output and have long formed touchstone works for great pianists and recording artists.
Mozart’s music, says Buniatishvili, carries ‘a simplicity that makes you lost before finding yourself.’ She is joined on her recording by an orchestra with a near-unrivalled pedigree in Mozart recording, the Academy of St Martin in the Fields.
Mozart wrote his first piano concerto at the age of 11 in the 1767. But everything changed in 1781 when the composer moved to Vienna and encountered a discerning public eager to hear piano concertos of increasing scope and variation.
