Haydn / Symphonies parisiennes by Haydn, Mozart, L., 에서 (2019/2019), 지휘자 William Christie, Cité de la musique, Paris, France

Following a change in the program, Concerto No. 1 in C major will be replaced by Concerto No. 2 in D major by Joseph Haydn. William Christie and Les Arts Florissants perform two of Haydn's most famous "Parisian" symphonies. Cyril Poulet joins them in the delicious Cello Concerto No. 2. Haydn's "Parisian" symphonies were the result of a commission from wealthy amateurs, including the Count of Ogny. This cycle of six symphonies was created at the Concert de la loge during the 1787 season. The publisher readily used subtitles to emphasize the originality of certain passages. Thus, Symphony No. 83 , nicknamed “The Hen”, takes its name from the sequence of notes repeated on the oboe evoking the cackle of the gallinaceous bird. Symphony No. 82 “The Bear” features drone sounds at the beginning of the finale, reminiscent of the bagpipes of the bear handlers. The young cellist Cyril Poulet finally presents his interpretation of the Cello Concerto No. 2.
