- Alfred Brendel in two of the most popular Mozart piano concertos. Brendel's
blend of masculine strength and rhythmic vitality with the utmost in sensitivity
to the beauty of Mozart's melodic lines are the very hallmarks of his interpretation
of Mozart's music.
- Concerto 21 is also known as the Elvira Madigan concerto because of
the use of the lovely slow movement in a Swedish movie of that name in the 1960s.
It has become the most performed of all of Mozart's concertos.
