Each of the release's two albums focuses on a moment in Mozart's life when the composer appeared to teeter on a knife-edge between triumph and disaster, joy and depression, life and death. It was these moments that brought the music of the most extraordinary beauty and intensity from the composer. Included are Mozart's sublime 'Clarinet Concerto', his simmering 'Piano Concerto No. 25' (soloist Lucas Debargue), his joyous 'Prague' and 'Jupiter' symphonies and sparkling arias from the opera's 'La clemenza di Tito' (with Ann Hallenberg) and 'Idomeneo' (with Elin Rombo). This release marks Fröst's recorded debut as a conductor, while he directs the orchestra in his third recording of Mozart's 'Clarinet Concerto' from the basset clarinet.
