It might have something to do with why it's one of the few Mozart pieces that speaks to me.
I have a recording of David Bowie narrating Peter and the Wolf. It's ridiculous.
Check out the "little G minor" symphony, #25. And if you are 'into' Mozart in a minor key, the two minor key piano concertos, #20 and 24, are worth investigating.
I think it was a stroke of marketing genius for RCA to get Bowie to narrate Peter.
