A REAL JEWEL, December 29, 2009
This review is from: Jospeh Haydn: Philemon und Baucis (a marionette opera) [Hybrid SACD] (Audio CD)
WHAT CAN WE SAY OF A HAYDN OPERA............THEY HAVE BEEN NEGLECTED FOR TOO LONG ! TO THAT SILLY PEOPLE WHO KEEP ON COMPARING HIM TO MOZART , WE CAN ONLY SAY HE WOULD HAVE RAGED AT THE IDEA! MOZART ADMIRED HAYDN TO A POINT THAT HE CONSIDERED HIM HIS EQUAL , AFTER DESPISEING ALL OF THE REST OF THE COMPOSERS OF THE TIME.THEY ARE TWO GENIUSES AND THEIR OPERAS ARE MASTERPIECES !!!!!!!!!! CRITICS SHOULD LISTEN TO HAYDN'S OPERAS .........ALL OF THEM,IN ALL THEIR VERSIONS , AND MORE THAN ONCE TO FORM A DECENT OPINION OF THEM!!!!!!!!!
PHILEMON AND BAUCIS IS A REAL JEWEL......JUST LISTEN TO "FIRMAMENTO" ARIA.......IT SOUNDS AS IF IT WERE COMING FROM A TIM BURTON MOVIE!!!!!!!!!
