Mozart’s concertos for piano have always been subject to claims that they are being performed in circumstances that would have been familiar to the composer. ‘Conducting from the keyboard’ is a slogan rarely far from performances and recordings of this repertory, and the practice is occasionally claimed to reflect how Mozart would have performed his music himself. Although Murray Perahia was genuinely honest when he reported in 1987 that he wanted to conduct from the keyboard because he found aligning his performances with conductors difficult, most conductor-pianists do not even bother to repeat what they consider self-evident: that conducting Mozart concertos from the keyboard grants some kind of access to the composer’s aims that other modes of performance do not.

莫扎特英语

莫扎特的钢琴协奏曲一直被声称是在作曲家熟悉的环境中演奏的。“从键盘上指挥”是一个与该剧目的表演和录音相距甚远的口号，有时人们声称这种做法反映了莫扎特自己会如何演奏他的音乐。尽管 Murray Perahia 在 1987 年报告说他想用键盘进行指挥时是真诚的，因为他发现自己的演奏很难与指挥家保持一致，但大多数指挥钢琴家甚至懒得重复他们认为不言而喻的事情：指挥莫扎特协奏曲从键盘发出某种访问权，可以访问作曲家的目标，这是其他演奏模式所没有的。
