Audio engineers take a bow...perfect balance of sound for each instrument and the ensemble. Magnificent performance by all. Bass player exceptional.
-
The bass player is not from this world. She is amazing. Im a bass player myself and this is so difficult to manage to do in such an ensemble! The sonority, tunning, articulation. This is a high quality bass playing I wonder, How long did they rehearse this? This piece its really great with bass. Great choice. Unbelievable ensemble. Top chamber music making
-
I love the full blooded playing here. Everyone is in the ensemble is clearly star material.
-
Stunning... and the second movement. It's as if I'd not heard it 1000 times before...
-
I had goosebumps at the end.. this arrangement and audio quality is just unbelievable
-
Wonderful to see these talented musicians showing their joy in playing Mozart
-
This interpretation shows that it is possible to play this Sinfonia with only seven musicians. A wonderful rendition with wonderful musicians! Thank you all!
-
So nice when Hochrhein Musicfestival Productions tells us: "The double bass part was added spontaneously during rehearsal time at Olsberg by Uxia Martinez Botana herself :) ". I think it is good that musicians still have the freedom to experiment a bit with music, that it isn´t locked forever. In this case it turned out to be a success!

Einfach wunderbar. Ich kenne Mozarts Sinfonia Concertante bisher nur mit großem Orchester und 2 Solisten (Violine und Viola). Fantastisch, wie hier nur 7 Solisten mit viel Leidenschaft dieses Mozart-Werk kammermusikalisch präsentieren... Ich bin begeistert.... Mein besonderer Gruß geht an die Geigerin Veronika Eberle, die ich sehr verehre, und ihre Heimat Donauwörth (bin selber in Eichstätt, ca. 50 km von DON entfernt)...
-
Amazing transcription! Never heard this masterwork played with such ensemble. Outstanding soloists!
-
I am breathless from this performance - what phrasing, what dynamics of the figures, what teamwork, what relentless virtuosity in each one and in the ensemble as a whole, what Mozart! Outstanding performance!
-
Great performance and musicians!!!! They seem to be enjoying themselves so much!!! Their looks, their smiles adds great pleasure to an already great rendition of this beautiful piece. Just delighted!!
-
Das Beste, was ich seit langer Zeit an Musikalität erleben durfte, danke!
-
Excellent! And the final smiles! Yes, one is prettiest when he's nearing the finish line. He already knows he's won.
-
Such great players every one of them. They each had moments of sheer virtuosity as well as moments of pure beauty. So fun to watch their collaboration!
-
The best performance and arrangement of a Mozart piece I've heard. Love seeing the musicians work together and they clearly enjoy the experience as much as any listener.
-
Great recording/arrangement!! The bass sound just soothes my ear. As an amateur double bassist myself, I feel like I've never produced such warm and smooth sound. Astounding Uxía is a pro!
-
This wonderful performance is Colossal All of Mozart’s music is comfortable to the ear and to the mind, and will quench and moisturize the dryness of the soul
-
Wonderful! Musically so enjoyable. Thank you Mr. Joël Cormier, the sound engineer, for capturing this superb performance of the ensemble for us who could not attend the concert. The music energy is trying to go beyond the technical limit of the Opus encoding. I only hope someday in the near future YouTube will start including the original WAV file intact as it was uploaded.

You guys are fantastic ... I love your performance, your presence, your sense of style, your wit, your musicianship ... BRAVI !!!
