Mozart Concerto No.5
“Choi is a very fine musician in her own right, one who accorded Mozart with every bit of decorum he deserved. Her entries were clean and crystal clear, her tone healthy but not oversized. With beautiful phrasing, faultless intonation, and exercising some latitude in the Joachim cadenzas, hers was a reading to enjoy. “
