Mozart Fans Only

If you love Mozart as I (and Einstein)do, here's a great CD I just picked up. Boston Symphony Chamber Players - Chamber Music for Winds and Strings. A great selection of small-scale works. I highly recommend it for people just testing the waters of classical music. Very good playing and easy to listen to. Hybrid SACD, for those who have hi-rez players, but it will play on all CD players. Enjoy.
More about music - less about gear.

Certainly not someone the average classical music lover would ever have heard of. Kudos to Brownsfan!

He also wrote much other fine wind music, especially for the wind octet, and also arranged a few of his operas for that ensemble. If I could form any chamber ensemble I wanted, it would be a wind octet.
