Giovanni Antonini & Il Giardino Armonico - Haydn 2032, Vol. 10: Les heures du jour - The Sunday Times

Antonini’s project, to record all 107 of Haydn’s symphonies by his 300th anniversary in 2032, has reached Volume 10 with his three best-known early symphonies (1761), Morning, Midday and Evening, coupled with Mozart’s supposedly nocturnal Serenata Notturna. Antonini’s orchestra’s bracing textures, swift but unrushed tempi and his evocations of Morning’s famous “Sunrise” and Evening’s spectacular storm must be heard.
