Sinfonia Concertante Es-Dur KV 297b ~ Konzert Fur Fagott B-Dur KV 191 ~ Rondo Fur Horn Ed-Dur KV 371

This EMI recording captures a selection of Mozart's wind concertos and concertante works, featuring esteemed French soloists including oboist Pierre Pierlot and clarinetist Jacques Lancelot. The repertoire, notably the Bassoon Concerto KV 191 and the debated Sinfonia Concertante KV 297b, highlights the nuanced interplay between wind soloists and the orchestral ensemble. Produced during the mid-to-late 20th century, this release reflects the era's focus on historical performance practice and the prominence of the French school of wind playing within the classical recording industry.

The album was released under the EMI catalog number 1 C 053-28 319, serving as part of a broader catalog aimed at making standard Mozart repertoire accessible to a growing post-war audience of classical enthusiasts. The Bamberger Symphoniker, conducted by Theodor Guschlbauer, provided a reliable and idiomatic backdrop for these technically demanding solo performances. While the attribution of the Sinfonia Concertante has been a subject of musicological scrutiny for decades, the recording remains a valued example of the interpretive styles fostered by the EMI classical division during the 1970s and 1980s.
