According to Sir Simon Rattle himself, there are few other composers with whom he has a closer relationship than with Haydn – it was “love at first sight” when he encountered these works as a young musician. In 2009, Rattle conducted Haydn’s oratorio The Seasons: a work which entrances through its magnificence and its basically sunny disposition. The vocal soloists are Christiane Oelze, John Mark Ainsley and Thomas Quasthoff.
