The Cleveland Orchestra, under the baton of Music Director Franz Welser-Möst, is set to release a new spatial audio recording of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 27, featuring pianist Garrick Ohlsson, and Symphony No. 29. This exclusive release will be available on Apple Music Classical starting August 1, with a wider release on other digital platforms to follow on September 12. The recording captures live performances from Severance Music Center’s Mandel Concert Hall, showcasing the distinct stylistic periods of Mozart’s compositions.
The recording highlights the collaborative partnership between Welser-Möst and The Cleveland Orchestra, known for its elegance and precision. Pianist Garrick Ohlsson, a celebrated artist recognized for his remarkable interpretations and technical prowess, brings Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 27 to life. The concerto, a late work by Mozart, is juxtaposed with his youthful Symphony No. 29, offering a comprehensive listen to the composer’s genius.
This release marks The Cleveland Orchestra’s second recording of 2025 and continues its innovative digital initiatives, including its streaming platform Adella.live. The project underscores the Orchestra’s commitment to making its artistry accessible to a global audience through high-quality digital formats and partnerships with leading technology platforms. The recording production was helmed by Grammy Award-winning producer Elaine Martone.
