Handel and Haydn Society & Aisslinn Nosky

Album Description

Mozart’s Violin Concertos need little introduction and are some of his most well-known and best-loved works. Despite being written when the composer was just 19 years old, they feature Mozart at his elegant, witty and beguilingly changeable best. Handel and Haydn Society with their inspirational Concertmaster, Aisslinn Nosky, bring Mozart’s musical magic to life in these live recordings from Boston’s glorious Symphony Hall.

Hailed as “superb” by The New York Times, Canadian violinist Aisslinn Nosky has a reputation for being one of the most dynamic and versatile violinists of her generation. As concertmaster of the Handel and Haydn Society she appears on a number of the ensemble’s recordings for CORO. With the Eybler Quartet she has also released two albums of Beethoven String Quartets for the label.

Handel and Haydn Society is America's oldest continuously operating arts organisation. Harry Christophers tenure as Artistic Director from 2008 –2022 saw the Society release 17 recordings on CORO including Haydn’s Creation, all six of his ‘Paris’ Symphonies, Mozart’s Requiem and Handel’s Messiah, and a Christmas album - ‘Joy to the World’ - celebrating America’s favourite festive tunes.
