Info zu Mozart: Piano Concertos Nos. 9 & 24

Der frühe Tod des preisgekrönten Pianisten und Dirigenten Lars Vogt am 5. September 2022 erschütterte die internationale Musikwelt zutiefst. Etwa 16 Monate zuvor, als er bereits von seiner Diagnose wusste und sich mitten in der Behandlung befand, hatte der Künstler den dringenden Wunsch, zusammen mit dem Orchestre de chambre de Paris ein Mozart-Klavierkonzert-Album aufzunehmen. Er glaubte, dass die Aufführung dieser fantastischen Werke, die er so sehr bewunderte, auch die beste Medizin für seinen Zustand sein würde. Für dieses Mozart-Album koppelte Lars Vogt zwei Konzerte: das frühe, überschwängliche Klavierkonzert Nr. 9 "Jeunehomme", das Mozart in seinen frühen 20er Jahren schrieb, und das melancholische und nostalgische Klavierkonzert Nr. 24, das von vielen als Mozarts größtes Klavierkonzert angesehen wird - ein perfekter Abschluss für Lars Vogts letztes Konzertalbum.
