Star pianist Olga Pashchenko and Il Gardellino Orchestra present a sparkling programme tracing the young Mozart’s bold development into full musical genius. Featuring works by the youthful Mozart learning from Johann Christian Bach, the inventive orchestral writing of Haydn, and the mature Mozart elevating the piano concerto to unprecedented heights.

In this special concert, Il Gardellino Orchestra and Olga Pashchenko present three works that reveal the rich musical dialogue of the 18th century. The young Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, his great source of inspiration Johann Christian Bach, and the slightly older Joseph Haydn embody three facets of the same musical world: a cosmopolitan style defined by clarity, virtuosity and expressive refinement.
