    Yes, this also very obvious when he used the great theme of the Finale of his 2nd symphony taken from Beethovens op. 98 final song "Nimm sie hin denn diese Lieder "!!!!!!

      Yes well there are examples where he consciously did this as homage to Beethoven such as the Fantasy op.17 quoting the last song of Beethoven's 'An die ferne Geliebte'.

          Mozart Piano Concertos 21 & 23

          I was listening to a new recording by Simone Dinnerstein. I also listened to Rudolph Serkin/ Abbado of the same concerti, as well as Geza Anda's performance of those along with # 20.

            I don't come back to this one often enough!
            Its a wonderful work! My favorite recording of it is the one conducted by Haitink.

                      Extreme microtonality?

                      Actually in a weird way, I like it.

                        Thanks, Don Q! That was well worth the time listening to it. It did remind me of Holst, particularly the opening measures of The Planets. Thank you for posting that!

                              Haydn - Harmoniemesse (Gardiner)

                              Haydn's last major work, and one of my favorites.

                                I'm listening to Mozart Piano Concertos by Gardiner on Spotify, who knew they had such a large range of classical music. Honestly there's not a bad concerto in the set - so many masterpieces.
