The detail of Buchbinder's passagework is translucent...No trace of vanity or self-projection from either soloist or conductor: exemplary.

24th February 2013

A rare welcome to period-instrument Mozart piano concertos where the solo instrument is not a slightly embarrassing poor relation, but a true partner. The sound of Paul McNulty’s copy of an Anton Walter fortepiano contemporary with Mozart may not be seductive...but it is blessedly audible and does justice to the interplay of soloist and orchestra

20th January 2013

With Nikolaus Harnoncourt's inspired and punchy direction, both Concentus Musicus Wien and Rudolf Buchbinder sound as if they are playing full out, with none of the prissy restraint that marks too much Mozart playing...Soloist and orchestra are totally equal and integrated, the sonic variety of wind, strings and keyboard almost cinematic in its intensity. More, please.
