About "Mozart: Piano Concerto No. 3 in D Major, K. 40: I. Allegro maestoso" by Daniel Barenboim/English Chamber Orchestra

Mozart's third concerto opens with a majestic stride. The D major Allegro maestoso swells with ceremonial pomp—strings like banners, piano like a herald. Barenboim balances grandeur with a boyish eagerness, keeping the pomp from turning to stone.
