As a rising star, Wolfgang was just 13 years old when he wrote the first of the brilliant symphonies that the Folkwang Chamber Orchestra Essen is presenting on its new GENUIN CD under the direction of Johannes Klumpp. The outstanding ensemble enters the third round of its Mozart recordings with four early symphonies from 1769 to 1773 – the period in which the young composer wrote most of his symphonic oeuvre. With a slender sound and historically informed means of expression, the top-class ensemble interprets the works of a teenager that still leave you amazed even after 250 years!

"The Folkwang Kammerorchester Essen, expanded to include wind instruments and brilliantly conducted by Johannes Klumpp, shows that you no longer have to be a specialist ensemble to realise music from the second half of the 18th century in a lean, agile, joyful and inspired way."

"The orchestra plays with great finesse, and the dialogue between the groups is excellent. The texture is light and highlights the excellent woodwinds." Review by Remy Franck, February 08, 2024
