A l?occasion de l?Année Mozart, (qui ne commence bien sûr que le 1er janvier 2006, mais on n?est jamais trop à l?heure pour les grands événements !), Brilliant Classics propose son intégrale Mozart présentée en un seul coffret de 170 CD, augmentée d?un CDR d?ailleurs pas si indispensable, contenant tous les livrets en anglais pour ceux qui savent le lire. Peu importe d?ailleurs : un bon livre sur Mozart ne coûte pas très cher, mais en revanche à ce prix et même à n?importe quel prix, impossible de trouver une semblable aventure discographique et une pareille expérience. Brilliant Classics offre non seulement tout Mozart, mais aussi tout Mozart dans un florilège d?interprétations non seulement toujours excellentes, caractérisées, le plus souvent remarquables, mais aussi qui se hissent plus d?une fois aux sommets de la discographie. Ce n?est donc pas là une intégrale au rabais : c?est une intégrale intelligente, composée avec habileté par Pieter Van Winckel, le Directeur Artistique de Brilliant Classics, qui connaît son affaire. Goût musical et connaissance de la discographie ont été ici mis au service d?un projet magnifique, qui rend un bel hommage à l?un des plus grands génies musicaux de tous les temps. Van Winckel a agi avec les labels indépendants de la même manière que Philips en son temps pour réaliser « son » intégrale Mozart : en licenciant ce qui lui paraissait digne de l?être dans l?existant, et le cas échéant en réalisant de nouveaux enregistrements. Du point de vue esthétique, voilà une intégrale qui est de facture récente. Il n?y a pas de nanards stylistiques. Car là où Philips avait somme toute assez peu ré-enregistré, Brilliant Classics n?a pas hésité, par exemple, à réaliser une superbe intégrale des symphonies sur instruments d?époque (dirigée par Jaap ter Linden), plusieurs enregistrements des opéras de jeunesse, l?intégrale des Sonates de Mozart par Klara Würtz qui est carrément sensationnelle. Brilliant a licencié chez Telarc les beaux opéras que Charles Mackerras y avait réalisé avec le Scottish Chamber Orchestra, chez Accent certaines réalisations de Kuijken, chez Ricercare les Cambreling? Les labels Claves, Nimbus, Bis, Berlin Classics, CRD, Hungaroton ont collaboré. Les airs de concerts sont pour la plupart des enregistrements originaux. L?intégrale de la musique sacrée a été, elle aussi, spécialement enregistrée : Nicol Matt en est l?artisan ? souvenons-nous de sa magnifique intégrale des ?uvres chorales de Mendelssohn.
