    Overview

    The Mozartists’ pioneering MOZART 250 project continues with this fascinating exploration of the musical scene across Europe in 1774. The wide-ranging programme, including several works receiving their UK première, begins with a richly dynamic ‘Sturm und Drang’ symphony by Anton Zimmermann, and ends with an extended scene from Gluck’s Paris version of his celebrated setting of the Orpheus legend.
