"More praise for these performances you will find if you search Kuijken Haydn on Amazon, and I can only add: Go for it! This bargain box is a collection of Kuijken's interpretations of 14 of Haydn's symphonies: three earlier symphonies, then the six Paris symphonies, finally the five symphonies between the Paris and London sets. I wait eagerly for BMG/Deutsche Harmonia Mundi to reissue Kuijken's London set. Price does not matter, as far as I am concerned, nothing compares to Kuijken's direction. But the price is ridiculously low, so go for it!

My taste on Haydn? Before I have the 12 London symphonies with Eugen Jochum, good, spirited, although Jochum's forces are too heavy; his is a Haydn looking forward to the romantic era, a charming mix of Enlightenment and Romanticism.



PS: August 2006: If you search Amazon B000EBDCUA you will find the London symphonies to a nice price. Great!"
