5 out of 5 stars What's Not to Love?.......2004-04-19

I have owned this set for several years and return to it endlessly. The angel Mozart has been praised over the centuries-and deservedly so-for many works,but no one-no one- wrote for wind band quite like him,as this lovely set attests. There is the familiar "Gran Partita" and "Nacht Musique" here, as well as wonderful gems for all combinations imaginable of wind instruments. Especially superb are the divertimenti for oboe, cor anglais, clarinet, horn and bassoon. Mozart's music always "sings," but particularly so in these joyous, soulful entertainments. The artistic lineup is unbeatable too: The Netherlands Wind Ensemble, the Holliger Wind Ensemble, and The Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. This is sweet, wonderful stuff.

5 out of 5 stars Heart's content!.......2002-09-20

I place the Gran Partita, K. 361, as Top Ten Mozart, and it's played with such joy here, I was almost taken aback. I have three other versions, and this one just may be my favorite. One version is all shadows, which is cool, but oh! the joy in the present version. K. 375 and K. 388 are played perfectly too. The good thing about this set is they have a lot of hard-to-find pieces for wind. To me, Mozart was unparalled at wind writing. The textures! The tones! It's too good to be true. Hooray!

5 out of 5 stars A wonderful collection.......2000-10-15

This volume of the Complete Mozart Edition put togheter by Phillips is an extraordinaire set of wind serenades and divertimenti.

The complete edition is a wonderful set of the first level and of superior performance.

I strongly recommend to try to complete the full set.

      3 out of 5 stars Mixed expressions here, too much dependance on what we already know.......2005-09-01

      Stefano Scondanibbio has an incredible sensitivity to timbre,string,contrabass,but simply timbre as it is constituted.He is equally at home with any string instrument and frequently travels with a cello opting out for the burdensome lumbering of travel with a contrabass; that's why we listen to him, He is an engaging minimalist like performer, barely making motions, almost Webern like in their economy,suggestion,import and mystery. He usually improvises his works,except for the long ones, he has a one hour work after Deleuze,on the layering dimensions of postmodernity,how things objects can be created at will, with every intensified degree of linear and conceptual association possible, uniting differed fragments of timbre, and making it whole, making it cohere to some expression. Of course as Cornelius Cardew said some place that the creator is in the end the "unifier" of the most nefarious regions of materials in music, that a responsibility resides with the one breaking/making timbre into durations.He was of course speaking of improvisation as the highest form of communication.Scondanibbio's master work here(not on this CD) is with antiphonal effects throughout the performance space,where he plays with lighting design and computer generated sequencing on stage.I experienced this at LACMA in April 2003.
      Many times within the avant-garde there are those musicians who think they can cross conceptual boundaries and still they encompass whatever is necessary, the demands of the music to project the content of timbre wherever and whenever it is a necessity with interesting results.
      Here all these pieces are written out and the results are mixed. I have a preference for the low partials the basso timbres, the voices downunder. I get tired of the stereotypical avant-garde string harmonic done ad infinitum, ad nauseaum now by the repertoire the Arditti cultivate. It is simply an expressive and conceptual deadend if no new conceptual framework is brought to it, as the late string music of Luigi Nono attests.
      These are early works of Scondanibbio,who had worked with Nono on his "Prometeo" for a time in/ from the Eighties. "Escondido" is perhaps a reference to Oaxaca Mexico,perhaps not, where he has frequently performed. I don't know, but this is an unengaging sterile work, again with tight pencil thin violin harmonics,unadorned, crafted into some shapes that Arditti plays with the utmost third person reserve possible, like he is not even there, a mere conduit for exchange.Curious again in how in Nono's string music the "Hay que caminar sonando" a violin duet these same materials seem to point to the vagaries of the century, an endpoint, whereas here they seem unattached, unfulfilled, "homeless" in a way.You never sense the primordial power capable within the string timbre here. Like wise Rohan de Sarem,cellist has more of a flair a desire to step out of the avant-garde standard commonplace repertoire and utilize his elegant playing for something else.He has even performed with AMM to interesting results.With him included here on "Humboldt" is quite euphonious, quite resonant with some expressive characters coming to the surface.Wonderfully played and great dialogue between him and the Contrabass who holds a quasi-accompanimental role. I think Scondanibbio's creativity in written notational music is wholly different and uninspired, "imprisoned" in a way in the avant-garde lingua franca than his more freely improvised works;his "oriente-occidente", or "strumentale" or the more interesting "Sei Studi". That is an entirly different language and expressive regions than here exhibited that he and Arditti has come to depend, like a Lacanian comfort zone engaging the "object petit a", the discourse of the divided self. The music is uninteresting and the creativity reaches a dead end impasse very quickly.

          I'm interested in purchasing this item, but I'd like to hear some examples first. There are no examples and no reviews. I'd like to know what I am buying. A few passages from one or two of the discs would be sufficient to enable me to decide if I like the style of playing or not.
