Following the death of Frans Bruggen in August 2014, the decision was taken by the Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century to continue touring the world and inviting various guest conductors such as Daniel Reuss, Jonathan Darlington and Andrea Marcon. The first recorded result of the new post-Bruggen era is this Mozart album with a program centered on the oboe, which has been devised by the long-standing orchestra member, Frank de Bruine.
