First because he spent his early years in the countryside and also because, unlike his colleagues who worked in the urban centers of the Habsburg monarchy, Haydn was in contact with Croats, Roma and Hungarians throughout his life. These influences were omnipresent in his music, to the delight of Prince Nikolaus I Esterházy and his guests, but by some accounts were not to the taste of many music theorists in Germany.\r\n\r\nHaydn gave his Symphony no.63 in C major the title of ‘La Roxolana’, from the famous sixteenth-century sultana who was the wife of Suleiman the Magnificent after having been his slave. As usual, Giovanni Antonini, who is reunited here with Il Giardino Armonico, juxtaposes Haydn’s music with that of another composer. The natural choice here was Béla Bartók, who is represented by his Romanian Folk Dances, composed in 1917.\r\n\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eGiovanni Antonini, Conductor\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eIl Giardino Armonico\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"Alpha Classics","offers":[{"title":"DSD 128 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741946294596,"sku":"ALPHA682-15","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 256 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741946327364,"sku":"ALPHA682-16","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 512 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741946360132,"sku":"ALPHA682-21","price":35.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DXD 24 Bit \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741946392900,"sku":"ALPHA682-22","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"WAV 176.4 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56741946425668,"sku":"ALPHA682-71","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57343677727044,"sku":"ALPHA682-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/ALPHA682.jpg?v=1790671440","url":"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/products\/alpha682-haydn-2032-vol-8-la-roxolana","provider":"NativeDSD Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
