The second volume in this series (Volume 1 is on 8.574516) is
devoted to three more â??Londonâ?? symphonies. No. 96 in D major â??The
Miracleâ?? â?? so named, as the legend goes, after a falling chandelier
narrowly missed the audience during its Hanover Square Rooms
premiere â?? exemplifies the grandeur of these works. The structural
surprises of No. 97 in C major and the hymnal slow movement of
No. 98 in B flat major reinforce Haydnâ??s inexhaustible compositional
versatility and inventiveness. These recordings are the product of
a two-decade partnership between Adam Fischer and the Danish
Chamber Orchestra during which they have explored the most
effective technical solutions necessary for performing these works. - .. VOL. 2 - NOS. 96, 97 AND 98
