Symphonies no. 22 "Der Philosoph", no. 78 & no. 82 "L'Ours"

Album by Joseph Haydn & Stockholms Nya Kammarorkester & Esa‐Pekka Salonen

Symphonies Nos. 22, 78 and 82 are orchestral works by Joseph Haydn, composed between c. 1764 and 1786. Musically they span Haydn's early and mature Classical style, featuring everything from intimate, contrapuntal and chamber-like textures with poised introductions to broader orchestral colours, prominent wind writing and vigorous finales characteristic of the later Paris symphonies, reflecting his evolution from a court-employed composer to a leading international figure in orchestral music.
