Album review
Ben Kim: "The story of Mozart is by now well-known. His oeuvre and life have become staples of modern culture, from the numerous books, films and biographies to the hundreds of recordings of his work by history’s most acclaimed musicians. Yet one might say this canonization has paradoxically led to a narrowing of our enjoyment of Mozart.
I’ve long been interested in using the modern piano to mimic the unique temperament of the fortepiano, to make the notes not only sing but speak like a human voice, accentuating not only the luxuriant vowel sounds of the modern piano but also the short, staccato consonants created by the fortepiano. Mozart is master of the lyrical, but there are even more layers of dimension to be revealed by adding the percussiveness of the fortepiano, sometimes taking the modern piano off its contemporary pedestal, and weaving the more transparent texture of its historical sibling with the orchestra.
For this recording, I had the privilege of playing with members of one of the world’s most prestigious orchestras. Working with leader Michael Waterman, our hope was for the orchestra to be fully integrated, to create a whole that’s greater than the sum of its parts, soloist included. The recording was done without conductor, in a diplomatic approach more common to chamber ensembles than a 28-strong orchestra. We made musical decisions far in advance and in rehearsal set the balance so that the piano could suitably accompany the orchestra, rather than only the other way around. Removing its lid to open up the piano, the orchestra huddled around it so that I was face-to-face with the operatic winds, bringing them to the forefront, with easy access to all string players around me. In this configuration we were able to fully relish the accompanimental and often under-prioritized middle register which so often forms the backbone of the music, contributing heavily to its character. Taken together, this attitude of musical camaraderie was instrumental in helping us create a distinctive sound and feeling for these much-loved works.“ © Challenge Records

专辑评论
本・金（Ben Kim）：“如今，莫扎特的故事已广为人知。从众多的书籍、电影和传记，到历史上最受赞誉的音乐家们对他作品的数百次录音，他的作品和生平已成为现代文化的重要组成部分。然而，有人或许会说，这种经典化在自相矛盾中反而限制了我们对莫扎特音乐的欣赏。
长久以来，我一直热衷于用现代钢琴来模仿古钢琴独特的音色特质，让音符不仅能像歌唱般优美，还能如人声般倾诉，不仅要突出现代钢琴丰富饱满的元音音色，还要展现出古钢琴所产生的短促、断奏的辅音效果。莫扎特是抒情音乐的大师，但通过融入古钢琴的打击感，还能揭示出更多层次的音乐内涵。这有时会让现代钢琴从其当代的崇高地位走下，将它与历史上的 ‘同胞’（古钢琴）那更为通透的音色质感与管弦乐队交织在一起。
在这次录音中，我有幸与世界上最负盛名的管弦乐团之一的成员们合作。与乐团首席迈克尔・沃特曼（Michael Waterman）一起，我们希望管弦乐团能实现充分融合，创造出一个大于各部分总和的整体，其中也包括独奏者。这次录音没有指挥，采用了一种在室内乐合奏中更为常见的协商式方法，而非通常用于一个由 28 人组成的管弦乐团的方式。我们提前很久就做出了音乐方面的决定，并在排练中确定了平衡，以便钢琴能恰当地为管弦乐队伴奏，而不只是让乐队为钢琴伴奏。我们打开了钢琴的盖子，管弦乐队成员围聚在钢琴周围，这样我就能与那些富有歌剧表现力的管乐器面对面，将它们置于突出位置，同时我也能轻松地与周围所有弦乐演奏者配合。在这种配置下，我们能够充分品味那常常作为音乐主干却又往往被忽视的伴奏声部和中声部，它们对音乐的风格特点起到了很大的塑造作用。总体而言，这种音乐上的协作精神对于我们为这些深受喜爱的作品创造出独特的音效和情感氛围起到了关键作用。” 版权归挑战唱片公司（Challenge Records）所有
