Ton Koopman receives 5 stars review in the Volkskrant

Last week, de Volkskrant honored 5 stars to the latest release of Ton Koopman: The London Symphonies of Joseph Haydn.

An excerpt of the review:
"Ton Koopman kneads the notes with confident hands. And what symbolics hide in the sudden harpsichord arpeggio's that Haydn makes Koopman play at the end of the 98th symphony. A purified artist waves here: Hi guys! I am still here!"
Guido Van Oorschot, De Volkskrant, 15 juli 2010
You can find the complete article on the website of the Volkskrant.

Ton Koopman writes in the liner notes of this album:
"What is striking in the Symphonies 97 en 98 are the beautiful slow movements: Haydn again shows us that he is the master of our feelings. The menuets are catchingly dansant, the trios are refreshing. The first movements of these symphonies start with - as often is the case with Haydn- with a short, slow introduction and directly after that they burst into a fast tempo full of joyfulness and inventiveness. He makes simple themes develop into masterworks in an unsurpassed way. The closing movements, fast in character and starting off with only the strings, are astonishing because of their vitality and structure. Haydn is at his best in the 12 London Symphonies."

First volume of the series of twelve London Symphonies of Joseph Haydn that will be recorded and released now and in the near furture of Ton Koopman and his Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra. Haydn is at his best in the 12 London Symphonies which starts in this volume with the Symphonies 97 & 98.
