Haydn: Symphonies

W latach osiemdziesiątych, gdy ruch tzw. wykonawstwa "historycznie poinformowanego" przeżywał rozkwit, nastąpiła fala prób nagrania wszystkich 106 symfonii Haydna przez zespoły instrumentów historycznych. 

Jedna z serii nagrań, która wywołała poruszenie w tamtym czasie, została poprowadzona przez londyńskiego skrzypka i dyrygenta Dereka Solomonsa. W latach 1980-1986 nagrał on 49 symfonii, wraz ze swoim, starannie dobranym zespołem L' Estro Armonico. 
Sony Classical ma zaszczyt zaprezentować wszystkie te pionierskie wykonania Haydna po raz pierwszy na płytach CD. W tej nowej edycji kolekcjonerskiej składającej się z 18 płyt CD, znajduje się kilka nagrań, nigdy wcześniej nie wydanych na żadnym nośniku.
