Congratulations to the audio tech! At last, just one high quality AB stereo pair in precisely the right place. You know what you’re doing! Thank you. (Retired Audio Tech, 40 years in studio, concert, film, tv. Loved it until they invented computers!)

Listening to classical music is like entering a realm of elegance and sophistication. The refined compositions and masterful performances create an atmosphere of unmatched beauty and grace.

The New York Classical Players bring a modern, polished interpretation to Mozart’s Divertimento in D Major, focusing on clarity, precision, and a grand orchestral sound. Their use of modern instruments and dynamic range creates a vibrant, expressive performance with a more powerful presence in larger spaces.

The presto movement just jumps with the energy and vigor of a 16 year old boy, which he was at the time.

[vikkio]

The third movement is absolutely breathtaking.

Stunning performances. Mozart's Divertimento's K136, K137, and K138 are my personal favorite classical pieces of all time.

Words fail - The rarefied atmosphere of Mozart's divertimenti leaves me intoxicated as though I had inhaled a canister of pure oxygen for an hour.

[garyandrews]

Perfect. Breathtaking. Sublime. I am in tears. Blessings to each and every one of you. Thank you for this.

For a very long time, I've been hoping to find a performance which handles the sumptuous suspensions of the slow movement so 'deliciously' - and here it is.
Coupled with superb interpretations of the outer movements, this is the recording for me!
So often, the first movement is just that bit rushed, and perfunctory-sounding : here, the phrase groups have all been thought about, and 'punctuated' beautifully in performance, while still maintaining an 'Allegro'.
Bravi!

we're playing this in orchestra, and it's so fun to play! and also pretty easy me as a bassist

Edit:actually keeping the correct tempo as a sort of "rhythm" section proved to be quite difficult

I dont know why but i started loving chamber orchestra more than original one after i found this channel. it has some unique charm that it owns

[古畑俊治]

It was very good, and I will play this music in spring, and I am practicing now and it is very helpful

[draganbatinic]

Bravo a todos, , the conductor is a musician !

[humptydumpty-mu]

The music is sublime, so fresh and elegant. Gorgeously rendered 🙏🏻👏🏻🎶👍🏻

[francisho]

Great performance on this beautiful piece! One of the reasons why I like this version is that there’re four verses for the first movement (Allegro) which makes me feel more completed, while most recordings only have three verses for that movement, such as Karajan’s version.

I still mean-thats absolutely gorgeous and perfect!Thank you very much!And the orchestra has had a wonderful day!
