He analyses behavioural patterns in the concertos and links them to theoretical discussion oflate-eighteenth-century drama and to analogous relational development in Mozart's operas \u003ci\u003eIdomeneo, Die Entführung aus dem Serail, Le nozze di Figaro\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eDon Giovanni\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003eMozart's piano concertos emerge afresh from this new approach as an extraordinary medium of Enlightenment, as significant in their way as the greatest late-eighteenth-century operatic and theatrical works.\u003cbr\u003e  SIMON P.
