This is the second volume of Mozart symphonies recorded by this talented quartet, all based on arrangements by J.N. Hummel for flute, violin, cello and piano. Hummel produced a series of inspired arrangements of Mozart’s symphonies; as a child he had lodged and studied with Mozart and the music on the two volumes demonstrates a profound understanding of his teacher’s art. He refused to vary a single harmony but did make some changes to accommodate contemporary early Romantic taste and to bring out intensity of orchestral colour as well as offering opportunities for pianistic virtuosity. In a review of the first volume, Fanfare said: "... Mozart in a more social, more polite guise, but no less enjoyable. Rather than acquiring yet another recording of these works in their original versions, listeners who love this music might enjoy hearing them as they are performed here. In fact, I feel quite certain that they will. Recommended."
