Friday, March 26, 2021

Together with pianist Christopher Glynn, the violinist has recorded completions of fragments left unfinished by the composer

Today's video takes us behind the scenes of a fascinating Mozart project from Channel Classics.

Violinist Rachel Podger released an acclaimed complete survey of Mozart's violin sonatas more than a decade ago, and here she returns to the composer to record the completion of fragments of four sonatas he left unfinished at his death. Watch her in conversation with pianist pianist Christopher Glynn, see Royal Academy of Music Principal Jonathan Freeman-Attwood talking to the person who completed the fragments, Timothy Jones - plus, enjoy some of the music!

You can enjoy the album and discover the completions for yourself in the player below.
