MOZART AND HADLAND
The release of Mozart Complete Piano Music, Vol. 1, the first in a new multi-volume recording series featuring acclaimed Norwegian pianist Christian Ihle Hadland. With this project, Hadland embarks on an in-depth exploration of the complete solo piano works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, presenting a fresh, insightful view on one of the most iconic figures in classical music.
Known for his clarity, elegance, and expressive depth, Hadland brings a distinctive voice to Mozart’s keyboard music. This first volume includes early sonatas, variation sets, and other solo works that reveal both the youthful charm and the inventive brilliance of the composer. Performed on a modern grand piano with stylistic awareness and nuanced phrasing, the album bridges historical understanding with contemporary pianism.
The complete Mozart cycle will span several years and albums, offering listeners the opportunity to follow Mozart’s artistic development through every stage of his career. This ambitious undertaking contributes to a deeper appreciation of Mozart not just as a master of form, but as a dramatist, humorist, and poet of the keyboard.
With Mozart Complete Piano Music, Vol. 1, Christian Ihle Hadland sets the tone for a significant contribution to the Mozart discography—an elegant and thought-provoking journey into the heart of the classical repertoire.
