Reviews
So this is it, in David Hurwitz' eyes one of the weaker discs in Fey's complete survey of Haydn's symphonies – which will take another ten years until it is completed, based on the current speed of releases.
Speed is one of the main points of Hurwitz's criticism. He considers them too fast to bring out the beauties of the compositions. In a sense, he might have a point. However, the playing is just spectacular and Haydn really needs such up-tempo-frenzy in my opinion, after decades of sugary-sweet mis-interpreation from the likes of Karajan, Beecham, Böhm etc.
If you are no fan of prominent (natural) horns and timpany, you might want to skip this, for both instrumental groups are really, really prominent here, so much so that the harpsichord conitnuo is not really that intrusive as Hurwitz considers it to be. This is Haydn how he might have sounded back in his days: Music that really set him apart from his contemporaries and paved the way for Mozart and Beethoven. Enjoy. (me :) )
Can we really have too much of a good thing in this music? The virtues of Thomas Fey's Haydn are well known, and are firmly on display here: the cutting timpani and brass in Symphony No. 41, the blazingly fast presto finales of all three symphonies, and the amazingly clear textures. But isn't the canonic minuet of No. 44 really taken much more quickly than contrapuntal clarity and the Allegretto tempo dictate? Can the orchestra really articulate the finale's jagged principal theme with the necessary violence at this speed? And doesn't that wholly unnecessary harpsichord continuo blur the rhythm in No. 47's finale and buzz annoyingly? Don't get me wrong: these are exciting, mostly enjoyable performances, immaculately played, but there's more emotional depth in this music than Fey seems willing to allow. A touch less haste and relentlessness, and consequently a bit more time to savor the details even in fast movements, might have paid big dividends in what is in most other respects a very impressive disc.
