Three carefully selected pieces centered on the theme of “Farewell,” including rare vocal works from Haydn’s late period sung by Pio\n\nGiovanni Antonini, director of the Italian early music ensemble Il Giardino Armonico, leads this ensemble and the Basel Chamber Orchestra in the HAYDN2032 series, a complete recording of Haydn’s symphonies.\nAiming for completion by the 300th anniversary of the composer’s birth, this project continues to yield one outstanding performance after another; the theme of this newly released ninth volume is “Farewell.” Of the three symphonies—each of which was composed against a backdrop of departures or life-changing events—the centerpiece is, of course, No. 45, known by the nickname “The Farewell”… Just as the thrilling minor-key development—so characteristic of the “Storm and Stress” period—reaches its climax, the solo passages for each instrument suddenly begin at a leisurely pace. Thanks to the reassuring skill of this ensemble of master musicians, listeners can savor a masterful interpretation that remains captivating from start to finish.\nSymphony No. 15, written shortly after Haydn’s appointment to the Esterházy court, and Symphony No. 35, which celebrated the return from a journey that had a profound impact on Prince Nikolaus’s life, are both dynamic and stylish masterpieces in their own right. Along with the final Symphony No. 104, the vocal pieces performed at the concert that marked the end of Haydn’s stay in London can be heard in a truly luxurious rendition by the renowned singer Pio. The commentary, which reflects the latest scholarly research and enriches these 77-plus minutes full of discoveries, is also exceptionally thorough.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374670766369,"sku":"4589538762414","price":2673.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538762414.jpg?v=1787632268","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538762414","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
