Antonini Il Giardino Armonico - Haydn 2032 / Roxolana 8 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The HAYDN2032 edition celebrates the of the tenth volume in the complete recording of Haydn's 107 symphonies. Entitled 'The Times of Day', this program is devoted to Symphonies nos. 6, 7 and 8, whose individual names translate as 'Morning', 'Noon' and 'Evening'. Prince Paul Anton Esterházy, who commissioned the work, is said to have wanted to show his guests that his orchestra was of excellent quality and that 'his' Haydn was highly inventive. Giovanni Antonini's orchestra, Il Giardino Armonico, once again rises to the challenge! This triptych following the sun's course is prolonged into the night by the work of another composer Mozart's Serenade in D major, nicknamed Serenata notturna, probably written for a masked ball at Salzburg Town Hall in February 1776. Jérôme Sessini of the Magnum agency, who has won awards for his work on the cartel wars in Mexico and the opioid crisis in the United States, took the photographs featured in this volume.

This ninth volume of the Haydn2032 series focuses on the composer's psychological subtlety in it's focus on a central work his Symphony no.45, known as the 'Abschieds-Symphonie' ('Farewell' Symphony), composed in 1772. It is said to have got it's nickname from a symbolic message Haydn conveyed to Prince Esterházy when he and his orchestra were required to stay longer than planned in the Prince's summer residence. On the occasion of the symphony's first performance, Haydn had arranged for the musicians to leave their places one by one during the final Adagio. The day after the concert, all the musicians were able to return to their families and bid farewell to the Prince, who had obviously taken the point of this poetic request for 'liberation' expressed in music. The programme is completed by Symphonies nos. 15 and 35 and a cantata sung by Sandrine Piau, the heart-rending 'Berenice, che fai?' on a text by Metastasio that was a real 'hit' of the eighteenth century, set by some forty composers.

The fourth volume of the Haydn2032 project thrusts into the limelight one of the most important stock characters in the theatre of sounds and words, the Kapellmeister, and explores some glamorous and (in)glorious moments in the career of Maestro Haydn. It features three symphonies by the InchShakespeare of MusicInch - one of which is even associated with ana ctual play. This bears teh title InchSinfonia in C per la commedia intitolata il distrattoInch and consists of an overture, four entra'actes, and a finale to be played at the end of the performance. Also on this is a large-scale buffalo scene by his colleague Cimarosa. Il maestro di cappella is a witty and ironic parody, in which a member of the Inchold schoolInch of musicians tries to improve the ensemble playing of his orchestra. To his chagrin, the players do react, but in extremely undisciplined fashion they are distracted, make false entries and disagree musically Album Tracks 1. I. Adagio - Allegro Di Molto 2. II.
