1785/1786, two of the most fruitful years in Mozart's life as a composer, inspired the MCO and Leif Ove Andsnes to partner up for a multiyear recording- and performing project: Mozart Momentum 1785/1786.

As the second album of the project launches, focusing on the year 1786, Between the Bars hosts a four-part miniseries podcast exploring the life of Mozart in those two vital years.

In part one: 'Mozart Momentum in Conversation: The Inventor', we join host Yannick Dondelinger as he discusses Mozart as the inventor of the piano concerto and the importance of his presence in Vienna together with Leif Ove Andsnes and MCO concertmaster Matthew Truscott.
