    Don't pay any attention to Boolez's idiotic review. This recording is excellent, as is the performance. As for Haydn, he is one of the indisputable greats - revered by Beethoven and Mozart and justly celebrated throughout history, "Boolez" notwithstanding.

    Boolez comments only demonstrates his absolute ignorance of Haydn's musical importance. Without Haydn we would not have had Beethoven. I am sure he doesn't know anything about Haydn. Probably he has not even listen to Haydn's String Quartets or Symphonies. I.E., don't pay attention to what he says. This record is great. It conveys a fresh and modern approach to these great concertos. Anyone interested in a new and energetic take of these works should buy it! I highly recommend it.

    I respectfully disagree with Boolez! The "backwater orchestra" is Les Violons du Roy from Montreal. It is far from backwater and is well-regarded and, in fact, did a stellar job. The Gramaphone Review cited Les Violons and Hamelin as both doing a superb job in their most recent issue and gave the CD its Recording of the Month nod. Wake up, Boolez.
  • The best pianist sense Liszt.

    Plays the piffle that is Haydn. I'm not sure why such a collosus of the piano bothers to waste his time with Haydn, but it is what it is.The support from some backwater orchestra manages to keep pace. For those who like this sort of cute early classical drivel that is Haydn could at least do themselves a favor and get this release.Now if only Hamelin would get serious and start playing some real music again.... -Bz
