Mozart On Tour | Munich: Way Station (Episode 12)
- DOCUMENTARY SEGMENT: By 1790, Mozart had visited Munich eight times – it usually was the first large city he passed through on his journeys and thus served as a way station for him, and his piano performances and works always were popular in Munich – but had never secured steady employment there. Munich saw important performances of many of Mozart′s works, including the world première of his 1775 opera La finta giardiniera ("The Pretend Garden-Girl") and of his 1781 opera seria Idomeneo. He played his 1788 Piano Concerto No. 26 in D major "Coronation," K. 537, at the coronation of Leopold II as Holy Roman Emperor in Frankfurt-am-Main in September 1790 and played it for the King of Naples, Ferdinand IV (1751–1825) in Munich on his way home. A noteworthy aspect of the written version of the concerto is that it does not contain all the notes of the solo part, preventing dishonest copyists from distributing the work without proper payment. In many of his piano works, Mozart expected pianists to understand what he wanted them to play from a musical sketch which required them to improvise the necessary harmonies, sometimes by sight. To this day, the "Coronation" concerto is played in this way, sometimes using cadenzas recommended by the composer or other authorities and sometimes with the individual pianist using his or her own interpretation. Music performed during the documentary includes portions of La finta giardiniera by members of the Choir of the Hungarian National Opera, Budapest, and the Symphony Orchestra of the Hungarian Radio and Television, Budpaest, conducted by Wilhelm Keitel, and of Divertimento No. 15, K. 287, by the Chamber Ensemble of the National Theatre, Prague.
- CONCERT SEGMENT: Piano Concerto No. 26 in D major "Coronation," K. 537 with cadenzas by Edwin Fischer, performed by Homero Francesch with the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen ("Bremen German Chamber Philharmonic") conducted by Gerd Albrecht, recorded in the Christian Zaiss Saal ("Christian Zeiss Hall") in Wiesbaden, Germany.
