Outstanding in their variety and creativity, Mozart’s piano concertos reflect his supremacy as a composer. He wrote the first of these precocious works in 1767, when he was 11 years old. Piano concertos continued to be a lifelong preoccupation for the composer, and these formative pieces foreshadow the even greater works to come. All possess his characteristic keyboard mastery, experimentation with texture, and a natural sensitivity to form and balance. This edition completes Dover’s five-volume series of all 27 of Mozart’s concertos. It includes: Concerto No. l in F major, K.37; Concerto No. 4 in G major, K.41; Concerto No. 2 in B-flat major, K.39; Concerto No. 5 in D major, K.175; Concerto No. 3 in D major, K.40; and Concerto No. 6 in B-flat Major, K.238. The four earliest works, which display evidence of Leopold Mozart’s guiding hand, are based on themes by other composers. Nevertheless, they are transformed by the addition of interludes and episodes for orchestra. Concertos Nos. 5 and 6 are wholly original, and taken as a whole, this compilation offers a revealing look at the development of a budding genius. Pianists and all lovers of fine music will appreciate these seminal works, reproduced complete and unabridged from the authoritative Breitkopf & Härtel Complete Works edition.

Considered two of Mozart's most important, far-reaching, and richly inventive piano concertos, the D minor, K466, and the C major, K467, represent the composer at his creative peak. Never before had Mozart so intensely explored the concerto form with its inherent struggle of one individual voice against many. And yet the two works are very different the D minor, tragic and intense; the C major, majestic and grand. Both are published here in full score with bar-numbered movements. Ideal for study in the classroom, at home, or in the concert hall, this affordable, high-quality, conveniently sized volume will be the edition of choice for music students and music lovers alike."
