The complete Mozart piano concertos by Ronald Brautigam, one of the most gifted fortepiano players of our time, are now available as a set. Brautigam has been highly acclaimed for his lively and clear touch in the complete piano sonatas of Haydn and Beethoven. The complete Mozart piano concerto cycle took 10 years to complete, from 2006 to 2015. With the exception of the two and three piano concertos, all of the performances are with the Cologne Academy led by Michael Alexander Willens. Their performances are impressive for their fresh sound with a delicate sense of feeling throughout. The ensemble is exquisite and their deep trust in each other makes for a delightful performance. Brautigam is also known for his attention to the instruments he uses. This series also uses replicas of the famous Anton Walter (1752-1826) and other famous instruments made by Paul McNulty, a master craftsman of our time.McNulty is a master of the instrument," says Brautigam about playing and recording with McNulty-made instruments, "not only because he studies old instruments and creates them anew, but also because playing his replicas gives me new inspiration in terms of performance interpretation. Brautigam creates a very natural atmosphere by using the instrument in the best condition he can imagine. The complete Mozart piano concertos completed this century by one of the best fortepiano players of our time are a must-hear! King International
