Haydn 2032 - Vol.1 La Passione
Label: Alpha Catalog: Alpha670 Format: CD Antonini; Il Giardino ArmonicoComposed by: Haydn; Gluck This new Alpha disc from il Giardino armonico and conductor and ensemble founder Giovanni Antonini, ‘La Passione’, unites two of Franz Joseph Haydn’s Symphonies, Nos. 39 & 49, with Willibald Gluck’s Don Juan ballet in recognition of the then newly gestating idea of individuated dramatic expression in works of music and its expression in these mid 18th c. compositions. “It was in the 1760s (after the first staging of Gluck’s Don Juan) that Haydn began his first “dramatic” symphonies. I find it very interesting to bring together these Gluck and Haydn works.” (Giovanni Antonini) Price: $27.98 |
