Melodious, virtuosic, and with the added bonus of being fresh to the repertoire - Haydn's soprano arias are among the most beautiful artefacts of Viennese Classicism, especially when they are sung with immaculate clarity as here by Simona Šaturová. Widely praised for her crystalline voice, exquisite focus and musical expression, Simona Šaturová is in international demand in opera and concert. She was born in Bratislava, Slovakia and studied with Ileana Cotrubas in Vienna. In January 2009 Ms. Saturova sang in a performance of the Mozart C Minor Mass for the 85th birthday of Pope Benedict XVI at the Vatican. “A splendid recital from a young soprano who rises with skill and flair to the music's varied challenges.” Gramophone Magazine, November 2009 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Haydn - Symphonies Nos. 91 & 92
"Symphonies Nos 91 and 92 positively explode with vitality…Wow. If you don't have any Haydn on your shelves, you couldn't start with a better choice." Natalie Wheen, Classic FM Magazine “Symphony No. 92… is one of his most dazzling symphonies… More mellow, and less well known, is the E flat Symphony No. 91… perhaps greater than either is the absurdly neglected Scena di Berenice - a vivid depiction of Berenice driven to distraction by the death of her lover, Demetrio. ...Bernarda Fink... hers is an admirably rich and full voice, and she performs the piece with intense passion.” BBC Music Magazine, June 2005 ***** | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Haydn: Cantatas & Arias
“The Handel and Haydn Society is America's oldest performing arts organization still in existence, having been founded in 1815 - a mere six years after the death of Haydn himself. With this recording of his arias and cantatas for solo soprano the society has done the musical world a great service: this is lovely music lovingly performed. It is almost a commonplace to say that Haydn has been consistently overshadowed by Mozart in the field of opera, but this has also meant the neglect of these quintessentially operatic miniatures. [...] Arleen Auger is superbly dramatic in the cantatas, gauging the emotional temperature perfectly and translating that into her voice through a subtle use of tone-colour and a commendably flexible approach to vibrato: drama without vocal histrionics. [...] I found this a most enjoyable recording, one I won't tire of hearing in a long time."” Gramophone Magazine | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Haydn - Cantatas
This new disc on Phoenix Edition is a compilation of one of the most famous symphonies by Joseph Haydn, the “Oxford Symphony” No. 92 and other less popular works. By recording of one of Haydn’s late Symphonies, which is usually performed by large symphony orchestras, the audience is directly presented with the differences and benefits of historical performance practice. By recording less known works such as the two solo cantatas, the traditional assignment of the Cappella was fulfilled, which was to uncover neglected treasures of music history and bring them out into the open. | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
