Giovanni Antonini, Il Giardino Armonico
For its eighth volume, Haydn2032 invites us on a
musical journey that takes the Balkan route. Of
all the ?Viennese Classical School?, Joseph Haydn
is certainly the composer closest to folk music,
first because he spent his early years in the
countryside and also because, unlike his
colleagues who worked in the urban centres of the
Habsburg monarchy, Haydn was in contact with
Croats, Roma and Hungarians throughout his life.
These influences were omnipresent in his music, to
the delight of Prince Nikolaus I Esterházy and
his guests, but by some accounts were not to the
taste of many music theorists in Germany. Haydn
gave his Symphony no.63 in C major the title of
?La Roxolana?, from the famous sixteenth-century
sultana who was the wife of Suleiman the
Magnificent after having been his slave. As usual,
Giovanni Antonini, who is reunited here with Il
Giardino Armonico, juxtaposes Haydn?s music with
that of another composer. The natural choice here
was Béla Bartók, who is represented by his
Romanian Folk Dances, composed in 1917.
