Since the 2015-2016 season Giovanni Antonini has been the "principal guest conductor" of the Basel Chamber Orchestra (Kammerorchester Basel, recreated in 1984 in the spirit of the first Basler Kammerorchester which was founded by the patron and Swiss conductor Paul Sacher). He is working with them on important discographic projects, such as the complete Beethoven symphonies (Sony Classical) which are proving a great success with the press; and the "Haydn 2032" project, a recording of the complete hundred and seven symphonies by Joseph Haydn, to mark the composer’s 300th birthday.
Volume 7 begins with the extraordinary Symphony No. 67 in F major. This astonishing work showcases its author's boundless inventive faculty, bringing together an overpowering joie de vivre with passages of pure chamber music; the evocation of the village fiddlers or, in the wonderful and enchanting Mozartian Adagio, the use of the bows "col legno" (that is, used by striking the wood of the bow against the stands) long before Rossini in his opening to Il Signor Bruschino, remain particularly memorable moments.
Mozart, the much-admired friend, is also present in this album dedicated to the impresarios ("gli impresari"), those theatre directors whom Prince Esterházy hired for certain shows that Haydn enriched with compositions which would later be transformed into symphonies – and which are now presented here, in this volume.
In addition to the Symphony No. 67 described above, this edition offers an original version of Mozart's Thamos, King of Egypt in an exclusively instrumental form, as well as Haydn's Symphonies No. 9 and No. 65 which were written for use in the theatre. This theatre of passions that runs through Haydn's 107 symphonies must therefore be understood as a perfect match between the natural aspirations of the composer's own genius and the pragmatism that almost always governed the arts of the time. © François Hudry/Qobuz
