The 25th Anniversary Mainly Mozart Festival please join me to celebrate 25 years of wonderful
performances with some of the best musicians
in the country. It will be my last with the Festival,
and therefore an appropriate time to include
pieces featuring many of the works and artists
from our premiere season. William preucil and
Cynthia phelps return to recreate their immensely
satisfying interpretation of one of Mozarts greatest
masterpieces, the Sinfonia Concertante; Anton Nel, always a favourite with San Diego
audiences, plays the same concerto as in our inaugural series; and the Festival ends
with Mozarts first and final symphonies used once again as musical bookends
to bring our 25th Anniversary Festival to a brilliant and satisfying conclusion.
It has been my immense pleasure and honour to bring high
quality performances to San Diego over such a long period of time
and, from the very beginning, to work alongside my wonderful
friend and colleague, Nancy Laturno Bojanic. Long may she and
Mainly Mozart continue to flourish.
The interpretive cover illustration of W. Amadeus Mozart was commissioned by Mainly Mozart to reflect the innovative nature of the 2013 Festival. The artist, Hua Tunan, is a rising artist from Foshan, China whose style has been described as making paint look like it serendipitously exploded all over the canvas.
