Alicia de Larrocha will always be remembered as one of the most idiomatic and poetic interpreters of Spanish piano music, but this beloved artist - born in Barcelona in 1923 to two pianists - was hardly less devoted to Mozart. In the 1990s, towards the end of her career, she undertook a series of concerto recordings for RCA with Sir Colin Davis - one of the great Mozartians of his time - conducting the English Chamber Orchestra, formidable Mozart veterans themselves. Now collected for the first time in a 6-album set, these performances were widely admired by music lovers and critics. Gramophone wrote: "In their transparency and vitality these performances are outstanding. Sir Colin's partnership is affectionate and exemplary [Nos. 25 and 27]." And of their collaboration in Nos. 19 and 27: "Sir Colin's unforced way with the opening tutti of K 595, his awareness of 'all passion spent' is haunting but unobtrusive. Such sensitivity is effortlessly mirrored by Larrocha with her enviable ease, her avoidance of all artifice or attention-seeking dalliance. Few other pianists are more attuned to Mozart's mix of pain and radiance."
