MOZART:     Serenades K 375 & 388        / Soloists of Europa Chamber Orchestra, Alexander Schneider

One of the best versions I know of this two masterpieces. The soloists have not the same quality of those of Brymer with his London Wind Soloists, but Schneider gives a perfect articulation and there is a life in this version that we never find in the one of Brymer.


Congratulations on your 1,000th :)
