Mozart is central to the repertoire of Christian Zacharias, born in 1950 and a pianist whose clarity, elegance, perception and wit make him a master of the Classical style. The New York Times has described his playing as “Apollonian … notable for its probing insights and carefully wrought details”. Comprising the piano concertos Nos 5-27, the complete piano sonatas and a selection of chamber music, this 15CD box shows Zacharias as both a soloist of prowess and as a sensitive partner to such fellow instrumentalists as Sabine Meyer, Frank Peter Zimmermann and Tabea Zimmermann.
