...MAJOR (Columbia). The elegant flowers of Mozart's genius are tended with loving care by Rudolf Serkin. He does particularly well at portraying the shifting moods of the G Major Concerto, which begins like one of the composer's opera overtures with a triumphant flood of sound, then grows increasingly introspective.
