Haydn 2032 Project, No. 8. La Roxolana)

[Machine Translation] Haydn 2032 Vol. 8 is related to the East. Bartok by Il Giardino armonico! The performance by Il Giardino armonico, one of the two groups in this series, is a vivid interpretation of Bartok's works played on 18th century instruments by Antonini, and the folk music-like taste of the music is further highlighted... The theme this time is "East. The theme of this year's concert is "East", which highlights Haydn's interest in the traditional music of the Slovaks, Roma, and Turkish culture that he heard there under his employer, the Marquis of Esterhazy, who had a fief in the eastern part of Austria on the border with Hungary. Among the three masterpieces from Haydn's early and middle periods, it is a rare opportunity to hear the latest performance of Symphony No. 63 "La Roxolana" with its beautiful slow movement with a hint of exoticism on ancient instruments.

ハイドン2032第8集は東方との関り。イル・ジャルディーノ・アルモニコによるバルトークを収録! 演奏はこのシリーズを担う二つの団体のうちのひとつ、イル・ジャルディーノ・アルモニコ。18世紀の楽器で奏でられるバルトーク作品の鮮烈な解釈はさすがアントニーニで、民俗音楽にも通じるテイストがさらに浮き彫りに・・・というのも、今回のテーマは"東"。オーストリアの東部、ハンガリーとの国境地帯に所領をもっていたハイドンの雇用主エステルハージ侯爵のもと、現地で聴かれたスロヴァキア人たちの伝統音楽やロマ、トルコ文化などへのハイドンの関心が浮き彫りになる選曲。初期と中期の傑作群3作のなか、異国情緒をほんのり漂わせた艶やかな緩徐楽章が美しい交響曲第63番「ラ・ロクソラーナ」を最新の古楽器演奏で聴けるのは実に貴重と言えるだろう。
