Perspectives on Mozart Performance, published during the Mozart
bicentennial year, is the first volume in a new series. It includes
essays by distinguished musicologists and performers, each
exploring a different aspect of Mozart's music in performance.
Several studies consider the eighteenth-century roots of Mozart's
approach to performance and examine such issues as the role of
ornamentation (Paul Badura-Skoda, Frederick Neumann), improvization
(Katalin Komlos), cadenzas (Christoph Wolff), and Mozart's
conception of tempos in a pre-metronomic age (Jean-Pierre Marty).
Two studies examine Mozart's string writing (Jaap Schroeder) and
the influence of his father's remarkably popular Violinschule
(Robin Stowell). An essay by Peter Williams treats Mozart's use of
the chromatic fourth and performance styles associated with that
figura. Finally, the later, nineteenth-century response to Mozart
is explored through the study of Mendelssohn's performances of
Mozart (R. Larry Todd).
