Is Joseph Haydn's music boring? Not at all, say Paavo Järvi and the musicians of the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen. On their musical journey through Haydn's symphonic works, they discover new and surprising things and come to realize that Haydn is a much-misunderstood genius. His hallmark is not only that he practically invented the classical symphony, but also that he lent it musical depth through subtle humor.
