Sibelius and Mozart both use clarity and simplicity to create music of tremendous life and impact. Mozart’s great C minor Piano Concerto is taut and strikingly powerful – and in the hands of John Chen will be a great experience to hear live. Sibelius’ first symphony is a work of vitality and brooding strength, of delicacy and triumph: a truly unforgettable work.
