Edited by Ulrich Leisinger, fingerings by Heinz Scholz, notes on interpretation by Robert D. Levin

"18 Sonatas form the core of Mozart's work for his favourite instrument. Mozart offered these works to publishers without ever proof-reading the results, giving cause for much debate over certain passages. Each sonata has at least two autographs, and we are greatly indebted to Robert Levin for merging the two sources together while trying to sort out the most probable original text. It is always rewarding to understand the workings of the minds of geniuses and that is exactly what these new erudite editions have placed in our hands."
