The recording of the complete Haydn Symphonies with the Heidelberg Symphony Orchestra and Thomas Fey continues with this performance of Symphonies No’s 26, 27and 42. Critically acclaimed, this series has perfectly developed the ‘Haydn Sound’ created by orchestra and conductor alike. “Fey's performances continue in the style to which we have grown accustomed: flexible tempi; enthusiastic ornamentation; a sometimes over-literal underlining of effects; a welcome apprecation of the crucial importance of the horns in this music” Gramophone Magazine, May 2013 |

| |  | Haydn - Complete Symphonies Volume 15
These are two delightful and lesser known Haydn symphonies and are full of surprises and innovations. Every new release in this series is greeted with enthusiasm: “There is much to fascinate and admire here…” International Record Review “Fey's performances always leave me breathless, seldom less than invigorated, often infuriated, and it'll be fascinating to hear how he measures up when only the less outgoing symphonies are left to be recorded.” Gramophone Magazine, August 2011 “What results is an astringent sonority, the timpani played with ‘hard’ sticks, the brass with piercing bite. All of this works well, the overall orchestral texture being especially well focused, the modern strings gaining a nasal sonority in their freedom from vibrato…this is a valuable release” International Record Review, July/August 2011 | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.

Wilhelm Bruns (natural horn) Heidelburg Sinfoniker, Thomas Fey There has been some doubt about the authenticity of Haydn’s Horn Concerto No. 2 but there is no doubt that it is a genuinely fine work for the natural horn. Wilhelm Brun is a specialist on this instrument and has made a name for himself as a chamber musician and soloist. These more obscure works make an interesting addition to this series. “[Bruns] plays [the concerti] on a valveless horn as if they're the best music ever written for the instrument and consequently turns in gripping performances, full of wit and wisdom.” Gramophone Magazine, January 2011 “Wilhelm Bruns's solo execution is virtuosic and makes an excellent case for his valveless instrument...The three players who join Bruns in [the Hornsignal] prove worthy colleagues, and the 'period' sonority of the ensemble seems perfectly apt for the score.” International Record Review, December 2010 | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
