Mozart has been at the heart of the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne's repertoire since its foundation in 1942, and the orchestra's extensive discography already includes acclaimed recordings of the composer's complete piano concertos and serenades and other works. 'Now Mozart: The Violin Concertos' reflects the rapport that Renaud Capuçon and the OCL have developed since the former became the ensemble's Artistic Director at the start of the 2021-22 season. 'Ever since then, it's been obvious that I should record the five Mozart concertos with them,' recalls Capuçon. 'We have a natural musical affinity in this repertoire, and their sound and sense of phrasing are so inspiring. Recording these works together was pure joy.' Assuming the dual role of soloist and director, Capuçon turned to the subtle musical complexities of the concertos armed with a feeling for their spontaneity and a determination to bring them to life in the moment. Recorded last September at Lausanne's Théâtre de Beaulieu, the 2-CD album also includes the Rondo in C major K 373 and Adagio in E major K 261.
