Description: And here's the other way to do a transcription: unlike the anonymous literal one above, Czerny turns Mozart's orchestra into music for the piano, offering a Schubertian transparency where required (the Recordare and Benedictus), a Beethovenian majesty (Rex Tremendae) or a proto-Lisztian show of keyboard fireworks (in the Dies Irae). Silvia Frigato (soprano), Anna Bessi (alto), Raffaele Giodani (tenor), Riccardo Dernini (bass), Coro Costanzo Porta, Diego Maccagnola, Francesco Pasqualotto (piano), Antonio Greco (conductor).
