Christoph Koncz has used gut-stringed baroque instrument to record Mozart’s violin concertos
When he first dared ask the keepers of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s violin if he might be allowed to try it out, Christoph Koncz had no idea where the question would lead.
“Astonishingly they left me alone with it in a room in his birth house and closed the door. I played it non-stop for several hours,” the musician said. “It was blissful, an awakening. I’m pretty convinced no one since Mozart has spent so much time on it.”
