Carmine Lauri violin*
Mozart’s first concerto, dated 14 April 1773, was for the violin. That charming piece was already broadening the horizons of the form before the composer followed with more during the course of 1775, all filled with the character, comedy, pacing and emotional breadth Mozart was soon to bring to the opera stage. Frequent collaborator of the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra, Maxim Vengerov, comes to the stunning Olivier Hall of St Edward’s School for the joy and melancholy of Mozart’s first three Violin Concertos. He is joined by OPO Concertmaster Carmine Lauri, for a rare chance to hear Mozart’s Concertone for two violins, a fascinating developmental work fusing the baroque concerto grosso style with the latest fashions in symphony and concerto form.
