Show & CultureShow & CultureOne of the most famous duels in music history took place in 1781, when Mozart triumphed at the Viennese court against a new rival: Muzio Clementi. As an entertainment, Emperor Joseph II invited both musicians to compete in a concert with their own compositions. Without choosing a winner, the monarch declared both as equals. Under the direction of Florent Albrecht and his Ensemble de L’Encyclopédie, this concert features two famous concertos by the Austrian composer and the only concertant work by Clementi. Virtuosity, joy, purity, and drama await in this exceptional musical encounter.
