Haydn/ Tafelmusik - Tafelmusik Plays Haydn Symphonies

The Toronto-based period-instrument ensemble Tafelmusik has built in it's special field a reputation as solid as those of the New York or Berlin philharmonics, declared The Washington Post, while the New York Times praised it's impeccable discipline and luminous [and] expressive sensibility. This 7-CD reissue of their Haydn recordings collects a wide range of symphonies, from his Sturm und Drang period (Nos. 41 65), the grand Paris Symphonies, (Nos. 82 87) and the three no less miraculous works that followed them (Nos. 88 90). Tafelmusik under Bruno Weil offers an account of these trail-blazing masterworks that s as near definitive as you can get * (BBC Music Magazine); They were born to play Haydn (Classic CD); The Sony Tafelmusik recordings set new standards in this repertoire (Penguin Guide)."
