About

Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra Records are renowned for releasing live recordings of outstanding performances by the Wiener Philharmoniker with their most famous conductors. All recordings are selected by the orchestra itself and represent their musicianship and tradition.

This release is a homage to Haydn, featuring seven of his symphonies recorded live by five different conductors with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra over a 37 year period.

Three of the new productions were recorded in 2009 – the anniversary year of Haydn – two by Nikolaus Harnoncourt and one by Franz Welser-Möst .

The orchestra celebrate Pierre Boulez's 85th birthday with this new recording.

The violin solo in Symphony No.103 is played on the same Stradivarius violin as on the first performance in 1795.
