On and around Mozart’s birthday, Mozarteum Foundation Salzburg invites music lovers to wintry Salzburg. A musical celebration and classical music experience taken to a whole new level of the world’s leading Mozart festival!

As a special listening pleasure for Mozart's birthday anniversary today, I've decided to share my all-time favourite piano concerto of Mozart, his Piano Concerto No. 20 in D minor, K.466, performed by no other than the legendary pianist Martha Argerich (1998).
