Oboist Albrecht Mayer and friends at the Edinburgh International Festival
From the Edinburgh International Festival 2023, oboist Albrecht Mayer and friends perform music by Britten, Mozart and Moeran.
In a performance recorded at the Queen's Hall, international oboe soloist Albrecht Mayer and friends perform two Phantasy works, both written for the oboist Leon Goosens. The first is a student work by Benjamin Britten and the second a mature work by Ernest Moeran. Between these, Mozart’s dazzling work for oboe and strings and another early Britten composition, his Solo Viola Elegy, written after an unhappy few years at boarding school.
