Description:

Catherine Cosbey and Dorian Komanoff Bandy present Mozart: String Duos, an album capturing the vitality, creativity, and intimacy of eighteenth-century music-making. This recording features vivid, period-instrument performances of some of Mozart's most inventive chamber compositions, as well as premieres of newly discovered historical arrangements of the Violin Sonata K. 305 and the opera La clemenza di Tito. The album begins with Mozart's two spectacular duos for violin and viola: pieces that are by turns lyrical, playful, and virtuosic. Following historical convention, Cosbey and Bandy insert extensive embellishments and cadenzas, capturing a degree of improvisatory freedom rarely heard in recordings of Mozart's string music. The album continues with the duo versions of Tito and K. 305. Arrangements such as these would have introduced many eighteenth-century consumers to Mozart's music; today, they conjure scenes of domestic music-making among family and friends.
