Mozart: Horn Concertos; Horn Quintet. The case for performing Mozart's horn music authentically on its original natural (valveless) horn is a bit tougher than for music in other genres; it's hard to imagine that Mozart or his audiences wouldn't have preferred the smooth scale of the modern horn to the reedy, clarinet-like tone that emerges on chromatic notes even on a fine recording like. this one. Yet the four concertos, two of them incomplete or incompletely transmitted, and the Horn Quintet in E flat major, K. 407, have been recorded often enough on natural horns. The orchestra on this recording, the Hanover Band, has even been heard once before in the cycle, curiously with the conductor here,.

The orchestra on this recording, the Hanover Band, has even been heard once before in the cycle, curiously with the conductor here, Anthony Halstead, playing the horn. This version is preferable; the earlier one had an odd continuo-like realization of the bass line, with harpsichord. But the real attraction here is the limpid playing of the soloist, Pip Eastop In general Eastop 's modest dynamic levels are in sync with the small Hanover Band, and the result is a performance that's beautifully controlled yet does not lose sight of Mozartian lyricism.

Mozart's Horn Concertos are perhaps the most popular works ever written for the instrument. This new album is a collection of all the works Mozart wrote for his lifelong friend, the horn player Joseph Leutgeb (17321811), one of the foremost players of his day. In these five works Mozart captures the public persona of an instrument most readily associated with all things hunting, but he also brings it indoors: lyrical episodes, and especially the slow movements, show the very soul of the instrument, despite any perceived limitations of the valve-less horn  . With lucid input from the Hanover Band and from the Eroica Quartet in the Quintet, these performances have a musical integrity over and above historical interest. -Gramophone, Jan'15. This is a clear winner of a disc destined to bring many a smile through the winter gloom.

Pip Eastop (natural horn); Eroica Quartet; The Hanover Band/ Anthony Halstead. These effects are additionally exploited in the inventive cadenzas Eastop has devised (no Mozart cadenzas for these works survive), and help to characterise the Horn Quintet K407, which can sometimes sound bland, as a volatile and passionate discourse. Crisp playing by The Hanover Band under Halstead, recorded in a dryish but immediate ambience.
