A repackaged set of the incomparable Dorati renditions of Haydn's symphonies. No other venture has come close to this authouritative musical tome, and unlikely to be available at this price again, a must-have. • 2009 is the 200th anniversary of Haydn’s death Decca’s pioneering complete cycle of Haydn symphonies on modern instruments • Recorded between 1969 and 1972, this was the first complete cycle of Haydn’s symphonies • Hungarian-born Antal Dorati was a Haydn pioneer and specialist who also recorded Haydn operas for Philips during the same period • The Decca catalogue of Haydn is without parallel and contains complete cycles of the Piano Sonatas and String Quartets (as well as Piano Trios on Philips) • Many of these are award-winning recordings
