Absolument à lire si vous êtes interéssé(e)s à jouer Mozart en vous débarrasant de certaines préjudices.

[Richard Pohl · Rating 5 out of 5]

A mind blowing book... even the first edition was indispensable, but this completely rewriten treatise is an absolute must for any Mozartian performer, scholar or just a researcher thinking about getting an insight into the music... It covers any aspect of the performance practice and finally respond on many questions and interesting topics which has appeared in the recent discourse on Mozart´s work and its performance. Fifty stars!
