Mozart / Muller Piano Sonatas Vol. 4 CD

Jean Muller continues his admirable cycle of the complete Mozart piano sonatas for H?nssler Classic with volume four. He was born in Luxembourg in 1979. At merely six he started piano training at the Luxembourg Conservatoire in the class of Marie-Jos? Hengesch, and made his performing debut at seven. He then completed periods of study in Riga, Brussels, Paris and Munich, and has excelled in the world of international piano competitions, winning over a dozen first prizes. Muller's performances are very fine. It is easy to sense being in the hands of a performer who is impeccably schooled in these works, and who presents them with precision and utmost sincerity. These endearing, compelling interpretations sound delightful enhanced by the lovely tone of Muller's Steinway Model D concert grand. Mozart's music can handle different performance styles. Muller's stylistic confidence in giving fresh and vital performances, without superfluous decoration, works well here.
