REVIEW

Mozart wrote the Divertimento No. 1 at the age of six, while A Musical Joke and Eine kleine Nachtmusik were composed shortly before his death

From what one hears, apparently only a few music lovers enjoy listening to Eine kleine Nachtmusik

Far too often has it been performed routinely rather than being filled with life

This recording is quite different: living up to his reputation, Karl Muenchinger proves that this favourite can be imbued with significance

The historical root of the serenade lie in the suite which consists of varied contrasting dance movements

In the spirit of this tradition, Muenchinger offers a clear and unfussed interpretation which is absolutely credible and has a freshness rarely heard

The ensemble plays both cheerfully and and wittily

In A Musical Joke, Mozart parodies amateurish composers of his own era

And the orchestra quite obviously participates in the fun

This LP is distinguished by its musical and tonal balance and is one of DECCA’s best sound recordings
