Antonio Salieri Concerto for flute, oboe and orchestra in C (2/3)

Salieri wrote this concerto in 1774. It is nowadays his probably best known concerto. My personal highlight is the second movement. Dagmar Becker plays the flute, Lajos Lencés is on the oboe and Jörg Faerber conducts the Württembergische Kammerorchester.

@mitchellpsp yea i agree to an extrent. i think that not all of mozart's works were astounding, but mozart's requiem, especially lacrimosa and introitus are undeniable works of extreme musical genius.

Isnt it funny how a movie can create such bias? Half of the comments Ive read about Salieri are inevitably in the shadow of Mozart. Mozart was a fantastic composer...but in my opinion, the real reason we know Mozart's work so well today is because at the time, it was so different than what was mainstream. Salieri simply blended in with the crowd...Mozart was not afraid to stand out. As a result, 250 years later, we remember what caused such a stir in Vienna so long ago.

@ClassicalMusicReview So in a less backhanded way, this is a good performance of a good composition. My friend, this is the internet. Why do you find the need to use excessively flashy language? Not that I don't appreciate a varied vocabulary, but it sometimes, as in this case, comes off as snooty rather than intellectual.

A question for everyone watching this video, and others by Salieri: can YOU tell the difference between this and Mozart?

Would you do the Pepsi challenge with this and Mozart? Are you sure you would guess right?

THIS IS a beautifully expressed performance, full of loveliness and tenderness...while the fire burns, this warms.

A perfect example why this piece and indeed all pieces of this composer as well as many others disappeared from the repertoire.

It's a perfectly charming rhetorical and highly colored expression without displaying the conservatory fetishes for counterpoint or chromatically harmonic modulations that lend themselves to absolutist approaches.The piece is performed in a dreadfully objectivist and stale respectful manner...but still it succeeds somehow.
