The Mosaïques Quartet trained with Nikolaus Harnoncourt and his Concentus Musicus, cultivating a taste for<br />
authenticity, the path they subsequently trod, starting in Vienna in 1987 and illuminated by Haydn and Mozart, led them<br />
to develop a collective colour. Here, their mosaic stretches to the mellowness of the fortepiano and the basset<br />
clarinet, an instrument partly invented by Stadler and suggested by the wide tessitura of the Quintet, which is what<br />
makes this version so special.<br />
Wolfgang Meyer expresses the light and dark facets of Mozart’s close friend, both soloist and trusted ear, eschewing<br />
emphasis and torment, constantly radiant and bonded to the ensemble.
