2006 marks the 250th anniversary for Mozart’s birth in 1756. What better way to commemorate him, than with a performance of his ingenious Piano Concertos.This is a rare opportunity for concertgoers to hear this most celebrated music performed on period instruments by Britain’s finest young Classical ensemble.
“Joshua brought to the music a freshness and clarity that made it sound newly minted. Throughout the evening she conveyed as great enjoyment in her music making as she gave to her audience.â€Â
