NEW YORK—It’s hard to imagine how Mozart could fit into a concert with the theme “Americans in Paris,” but the opening concert of the Mostly Mozart Festival managed to do that.

The festival began with one of the most celebrated pieces by the late conductor, composer, and educator Leonard Bernstein (1918-1990): the sparkling overture to “Candide” (1956).
