Mozart 1784
In the last of this week's programmes Geoff Baskerville presents music written by Mozart during 1784, featuring performances given last week at the Edinburgh International Festival and new recordings by a young Norwegian quartet. When Mozart entered his quintet for piano and wind into his catalogue, he added the short but telling note, "the best work I have composed."
