Very fine French performance of the Mozart Sinfonia Concertante

Just discovered on my pandemic browsing but a video dating from 2018.

https://www.francemusique.fr/concert/interpretation/symphonie-concertante-pour-pour-hautbois-clarinette-cor-basson-et-orchestre-en-mi-bemol-majeur-k-297b

I think this site is not geo-restricted and has some fine resources.

I assume the soloists are all from the l'Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France, great ensemble without anyone trying to dominate.

Jérôme Voisin is superb on his CSGs.

What makes the performance for me is the French bassoon playing of Julien Hardy. It really saddens me that the French bassoon has practically become an endangered species during my playing lifetime.

There is also a full video of K622 with Patrick Messina on the same site. Very good technically but uninspiring for me.

Gorgeous playing, but I cannot watch. Makes me sea sick!
Lucky the music isn't as convoluted as the movement. Many players that play this way have a static interpretation if you close your eyes.
