Programme Note
Mozart’s only Oboe Concerto has an unusual history. It was lost for more than 100 years and only rediscovered in 1920 in a pile of scores in an archive in Salzburg. But there’s nothing forgettable about this music. As exuberant and fresh as any concerto Mozart composed, it has a theatrical energy that will make you feel like you’re taking your seat for a night at the opera – or just being carried away on a fresh Summer breeze. Who better to perform it than one of Britain’s best-known oboists and a master of this repertoire, Nicholas Daniel OBE, in his first concert with Sinfonia Viva.
