Does anyone know the performers?
I believe these were ripped from the collection of Mozart's complete works 170 CD Box set. I myself downloaded a score of these recordings from this website. For me it is hard to tell who is performing on instrumental works because I am not an instrumentalist and therefore don't have that sort of ear. But as a singer I can tell who is performing on the vocal works. I came to find out that his operas that were featured on the site are the same ones in this box set. So, although it is just my guess, I believe you can count on it that these are all performed by a wide variety of artists, well known ones as well as not-so-known ones, most of which you can find out from this link.

Just scroll down to one of those looong reviews and you can see the reviewer's personal selections and the performers listed. I myself enjoyed all the recordings that I got so far. Mostly real good performances. Only thing about them is that they are not live recordings. I tend to prefer live performances like most musicians do. But, hey, this website is a great source for anyone who really loves Mozart and/or wants to discover and study his vast variety of musical masterpieces. Even though I am a die-hard Mozart junkie, I discovered so many of his great music that you can't see performed that often.
