    When my father was in the hospital being treated for terminal cancer, I took a selection of classical music for him to listen to. This concerto was his favorite. I always think of him when I hear it.

The slow movement, adagio, at 13.03, brings tears my eyes & that's a wonderful experience for me too. Do continue with your journey, there's plenty more that will touch your heart.

    It is so amazing what humans are capable of. This soloist is so excellent, and is flawless during this long piece. Backed by a group of individuals who somehow together are providing such a wonderful orchestral sound. And, of course, Mozart, who could sculpt such a piece specifically for this instrument, and who could engage our minds and our emotions so hypnotically. One can trace Mozart's growth and maturity over the years. This is one of his very last works, when we can see an exceptional depth of feeling and warmth to accompany his basic musical genius. If only he lived longer, we might see and hear even more. One can only imagine how great that would have been!

      I remember this as background music for "Out of Africa" back in 1986, I believe. A great movie and music!

    Mozart never fails to impress - Arngunnur Arnadottir is brilliant!

    I never fail to stand in awe when I hear this amazing work of Mozart. When I first heard it I could almost not believe that it was the product of a mortal.

    I have realized I don't have a favorite composition of Mozart. It's all equally charming and wonderful. Who could choose? He really was a genius like no other.

    I have played the Adagio to the piece for a Solo and Ensemble contest before my audition to music school. It's one of the most beautiful, yet taxing pieces ever written for the clarinet.

      For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 ✝🌅

    Happy birthday, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Your music - whether it's a symphony, concerto, sonata - is so serenely beautiful, that I get goosebumps listening to it. This concerto is no exception, it is so graceful. Thank you for your all too short life. Your candle burned out long before your legend ever will.

    There's no doubt that Mozart was the greatest composer ever, this is just living proof. This young lady is a fine instrumentalist, this piece is interpreted beautifully.

    And Mozart joyfully laughs, for this sublime rendering of his masterpiece clarinet concerto. (He said it all with this, so there is no other for the clarinet.)
    The extraordinary soloist, the ensemble in complete and gorgeous synch with her (the end of the second movement is breathtaking!), and not least the conductor who clearly is channeling Mozart-it is the best. Thank you for your love of this music, and for investing your lives in it, for all of us.
