Mustonen - Mozart PC 11



I listened yesterday to a recording of Mustonen's performance of Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 11, K.413, from a broadcast in Melbourne last month. I gather from comments elsewhere that he has been playing it in concerts during his current tour, so maybe some of you have heard it.

Those agogic stretchings and compressions are quite refreshing for a while, but they never seem to change, and well before the end of the work they just annoyed me. Mustonen obviously has imagination (and fingers), but apparently not enough of it was employed here.
