Overview
Haydn – Szereti Ön Haydnt? offers a beautiful selection of Joseph Haydn’s most beloved compositions, showcasing his mastery in both orchestral symphonies and choral works. This LP features his Symphony No. 94 (nicknamed Surprise Symphony due to its famous "thunderstroke" in the second movement), and a variety of vocal works performed by renowned Hungarian musicians.
Conducted by Ferencsik János, the Symphony No. 94 is performed by the Hungarian State Orchestra, with a lively and passionate rendition of each movement. The second side of the album explores Haydn’s operatic and choral writing, including selections from The Apothecary, The Seasons, and The Creation, highlighting the brilliance of Haydn’s vocal compositions with performances by the Budapesti Kórus and soloists.
