Haydn: Symphonies Nos. 31, 70 & 101
The first of two Haydn recordings from Robin Ticciati and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra presents a “D Major” overview of Franz Joseph Haydn’s symphonic repertoire. From Haydn’s early period the Baroque influenced Symphony No. 31, ‘Horn Signal’ has an almost Gothic tinged feel with highly contrapuntal elements. Counterpoint is found in abundance throughout Symphony No. 70, a work written in the devastating aftermath of a fire on the Esterházy grounds, destroying buildings, instruments and consuming music scores. One of the famous ‘London Symphonies’, No. 101, ‘The Clock’ has its focus firmly on the future. Robin Ticciati is in his fifth season as Principal Conductor of the SCO. Gramophone named Robin one of the top ten young ‘conductors on the verge of greatness’ and one of 'Tomorrow's Icons'. “[an] exhilaratingly free performance of The Clock…the tick-tock Andante had a fragile grandeur that was disarming and poignant.” (The Guardian)
