During a 60+ year exploration of the Haydn symphonies, this work and others from the late 1770s/early 1780s were the last ones with which I came properly to grips - a situation that may have reflected H. C. Robbins Landon's rather cool assessment (in his 1955 book on the Haydn symphonies) of the works that fall chronologically between what used to be called the 'Sturm und Drang' symphonies (from the late 1760s and early 1770s) and the 'Paris' symphonies (from 1785/6). An effective refutation of Landon's undervaluing was provided by James Webster in a chapter published in 'Haydn Studies', edited by W. Dean Sutcliffe (Cambridge University Press, 1998), and is now solidly affirmed by the superb performance of this masterpiece, which prompted the present comments. Among points of especial interest in this symphony, one can cite the unusually delayed false recapitulation in the first movement, the plunge into a remote key at the start of the development section of the finale (D flat major), and unconventional harmonies, especially in the two outer movements.
A very well disciplined orchestra serving Haydn
excellently. Bravo!
Spectacular performance!
As a footnote to my earlier comment, to conclude that the false recapitulation in the first movement is "unusually delayed" would have required a statistical survey of Haydn symphony first movements, to document the relative proportions of the development sections elapsing before the start of a false recapitulation (for those movements with this feature). Not having done this, all that can be stated is that there is a false recapitulation here, without making claims about whether or not it is 'delayed'.
Very nice performance! Well recorded. Thank you for posting. (Late) Middle period Haydn, 1780. Good stuff.
Классно! Почувствовал эпоху Гайдна'Браво!
Really an excellent performance!
THIS IS REALLY NICE. BRAVO. BRAVO
Even today this is pushing harmonic boundaries.
... nel gran numero di sinfonie di Haydn, questa, ahimé, è un po' trascurata: eppure ascoltandola ... è eccellente. Ottima quest'esecuzione. Bravi!
That can apply to every Haydn symphony..I have said that myself numerous times. What a remarkable genius!
