5.0 out of 5 stars Invigorating performances from a formidable player, 13 Sep 2005
By JM Olmesdahl - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Haydn's concertos have been lucky on CD this year receiving two noteworthy period performances: one, by Andreas Staier and the Freiburg Baroque on Harmonia Mundi - HMC-901854 (64'20"); the other, Ronald Brautigam and the Concerto Copenhagen on BIS - CD-1318 ( 75'54"). Of the two, first choice must go Ronald Brautigam, not only because he offers us four concertos to the three offered by Staier, but because, compared to Staier, he is much nimbler and more sparkling overall in his delivery. Staier sounds almost amateurish, even though we know he is not, and his orchestra sound somewhat heavy-handed and humourless compared to the lighter-sounding textures of Concerto Copenhagen. Those who may have bought and enjoyed Brautigam's series of sonatas by Mozart and Haydn for fortepiano will already know what to expect in terms of his playing. What marred my enjoyment of that series was the reverberant "halo" surrounding the instrument. So it was some hesitation that I approached this new release, especially given the criticisms BIS has received for its overly reverberant recordings of the complete concertos of C.P.E. Bach. But I was pleasantly surprised to find no such reverberance here. Some may wonder, as I did, about the use of a harpsichord continuo, but this is a matter of historical interpretation and hardly distracts from the spirit of the performances. If you're looking for a modern piano version (which I do not believe does justice to these works) then this is not the place to find it. But for anyone looking for a historically informed performance, Brautigam's is the one to go for.
