Danish Chamber Orchestra, Ádám Fischer
Symphony No. 102 in B-Flat Major, Hob. I
Symphony No. 103 in E-Flat Major, Hob. I
Symphony No. 104 in D major 'London'
The fourth volume in this series culminates in Haydn’s grandest symphonies, written during his second, triumphant visit to London. The works possess increased artistic weight and mark a transition from Viennese Classicism to Romanticism. In their profuse thematic writing, lyricism, wit and peasant-like evocations – some said to be rooted in Croatian melodies – they offer a kaleidoscopic tour-de-force of his symphonic genius at the zenith of his achievement. Once again, Adam Fischer and the Danish Chamber Orchestra employ the best technical performance practice in their recordings.
"Levyltä paistaa rakkaus Haydnin musiikkin sekä viitseliäisyys, joka ulottuu myös Naxosin hienoon äänitykseen. Hintaluokassaan nämä ovat lyömättömiä esityksiä, joista säteilee soivaa auringonpaistetta pimeään vuodenaikaan." - Antti Häyrynen, Rondo 1/2025
