Paris Symphonies (2CD)

HAYDN Joseph - Paris Symphonies (2CD)

Hänssler CLASSIC is proud to announce the first special production compiled from the complete recording of the Haydn symphonies with the Heidelberger Sinfonikern under the direction of Thomas Fey. This double CD presents Symphonies Nos. 82 - 87, the so-called "Paris Symphonies." Haydn wrote these works for performance by Paris orchestras, which were at that time substantially larger than the German or Austrian court orchestras. Also from the musical and emotional spectrum these symphonies are remarkable, testing new modes of expression, and feature dynamic writing for the woodwind section.
