The second volume in this series (Volume 1 is on 8.574516) is devoted to three more 'London' symphonies. No. 96 in D major 'The Miracle' - so named, as the legend goes, after a falling chandelier narrowly missed the audience during its Hanover Square Rooms premiere - exemplifies the grandeur of these works. The structural surprises of No. 97 in C major and the hymnal slow movement of No. 98 in B flat major reinforce Haydn's inexhaustible compositional versatility and inventiveness. These recordings are the product of a two-decade partnership between Adam Fischer and the Danish Chamber Orchestra during which they have explored the most effective technical solutions necessary for performing these works.
