Description:
Clarinetist Leopold Wlach performs Mozart's Clarinet Quintet in A Major with the Vienna Konzerthaus Quartet.

This is in almost every way a fine performance of the limpid work. The temos are well chosen, the style is a very reasonably Mozartian one. The balance is well-adjusted throughout; save just at one place during the beautiful playing of the slow movement, when we could usefully have heard a little more of the first violin’s decorative passages. And Leopold Wlach is a masterly clarinet player; he plays... with beautiful tone and sensitivity, coupling them with perfect intonation and faultlessly smooth technique. - Gramophone
