Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Piano Concertos Nos. 23 & 19 (1976) 2012, Deutsche Grammophon [FLAC 2.0|192/24|WEB-DL|tracks] <Concerto, Classics>

One of the best versions of these works we have had in recent years... One could say that in general Pollini is a shade more open and direct in his projection of the solo part than Perahia, so that there are times when he suggests a greater freshness of feeling... Pollini is robuster in the finales, more overtly brilliant... Comments such as these are inadequate to pin down the qualities of...magnificent artists at the top of their form... --Gramophone
. . . la version de Maurizio Pollini, d'un luxe sonore inoui, présente une synthèse entre les grandes versions symphoniques et les approches chambristes, entre la simplicité de chant et la maîtrise supérieure de la forme . . . Il faudra attendre Wilhelm Kempff et la stéréo pour qu'enfin justice soit rendue à un ancien. La tendresse, la clarté, le style déclamatoire du pianiste sont incomparable. --Bertrand Dermoncourt, Classica - Repertoire
Pollini plays with classical poise and clarity, and the accompaniment, from Karl Böhm and the Vienna Philharmonic, is very lively . . . as a Mozartian he was almost faultless. --David Mellor, Mail on Sunday
