Three substantial works illustrating the transition to his late masterpieces, where thrill and depth intertwine]\nHaydn, known as the “Father of the Symphony,” composed over 100 rich and varied symphonies over nearly 40 years and guided his pupil Beethoven in breaking new ground in the genre. The “HAYDN2032” project aims to record all of Haydn’s extant symphonies—along with related works—by 2032, the 300th anniversary of his birth. At the helm is the extraordinary talent Giovanni Antonini, who has consistently made a remarkable impact in the field of early music performance. Since the project’s inception in 2014, it has garnered attention for its brilliant new interpretations, imbued with the conductor and performers’ talent and deep insight down to the finest detail. Selected for the 15th installment of this meticulously planned and smoothly progressing project, now reaching its midpoint, are three masterpieces from Haydn’s 40s and 50s—works that marked the fruition of his creativity at the Esterházy court, where his compositional activities were centered, and which were already attracting attention from afar. Antonini’s baton fully illuminates the charm of Haydn’s unparalleled artistry—a thrilling balance between folk-inspired elements and intellectual refinement, achieved through the dramatic compositional style derived from the stage music that thrilled the court theater. No. 50, in which natural brass and timpani play a brilliant role; the unique No. 62, in which all movements are in the same key; and No. 85, the crowning jewel of the “Paris Symphonies” known for the anecdote that Queen Marie Antoinette of France loved it… While the masterful performance by the Basel Chamber Orchestra, which expertly handles period instruments, is a highlight in itself, this series is also distinguished by its comprehensive 36-page booklet, featuring background commentary based on the latest research (in English, French, and German) and numerous beautiful photographs related to the themes. These three works offer a glimpse into the unfathomable depth of Haydn’s artistry, revealed through the evolution of his style—please take your time to savor them once again.\n\n・DMM Cutting\n・2-disc set of 180g heavyweight vinyl, 33 1\/2 rpm\n・Includes a CD with the same content\n・Limited to 1,000 sets, each with a serial number\n・36-page color booklet\n・Double jacket\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52776485912865,"sku":"4589538831066","price":5751.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538831066.jpg?v=1779963786","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538831066","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
