Violin Concertos

Album by Joseph Haydn & Isabelle Faust & Münchener Kammerorchester & Christoph Poppen

Violin Concertos is a collection of violin concertos by Austrian composer Joseph Haydn, composed during the Classical period in the 1760s and 1770s. They display Classical-era characteristics such as clear melodic lines, balanced formal structures and transparent orchestration that foreground the dialogue between solo violin and ensemble, and they occupy an early-to-mid position in Haydn's output where he contributed to the development of the concerto genre.
First released: 1998
