"These interpretations - excellent to outstanding - are interpretations of today."
Gramophone Recommends, August 2010

Fortepiano phenomenon Kristian Bezuidenhout begins his multi-volume traversal of Mozart's music for solo keyboard. Volume 1 features an instrument by Derek Adlam modeled on an original by Gabriel Anton Walter of the type Mozart owned in Vienna.

Kristian Bezuidenhout studied with Rebecca Penneys, Malcolm Bilson and Paul O'Dette. He first gained international recognition at the age of 21 after winning the prestigious first prize as well as the audience prize in the Bruges Fortepiano Competition (2001), a double honour, this being only the third time the former prize has been awarded in the history of the competition.

Fantasia in C minor K475.
Sonata for Piano No.15 in F major K533.
Sonata for Piano No.17 in B flat major K570.
