About the album

Joseph Haydn, one of the most influential composers in classical music is famous for his symphonies and his chamber music. His piano sonatas are in our daily concert life only some little pieces to start the evening with.

That´s why there are only very few complete recordings of all the sonatas in their original form.

We think it is about time to correct that, to produce a new complete recording of these wonderful pieces that were a massive inspiration for Mozart, Beethoven an many others.

It will take us 6 years to complete this edition with 11 CDs.

Composer(s)

Joseph Haydn

(Franz) Joseph Haydn was a prolific Austrian composer of the Classical period. He was instrumental in the development of chamber music such as the piano trio and his contributions to musical form have earned him the epithets 'Father of the Symphony' and 'Father of the String Quartet'.   Haydn spent much of his career as a court musician for the wealthy Esterházy family at their remote estate. Until the later part of his life, this isolated him from other composers and trends in music so that he was, as he put it, 'forced to become original'. Yet his music circulated widely and for much of his career he was the most celebrated composer in Europe.   He was a friend and mentor of Mozart,...
