  • Description

    The second disc by pianist Einav Yarden on Challenge Classics – following her 2013 debut recording Oscillations, on which she paired Beethoven and Stravinsky to "striking effect, with imagination and exceptionally vivid playing" according to the Washington Post – is devoted to Piano Sonatas by Joseph Haydn.

    Einav Yarden says: "The six keyboard sonatas selected for this CD are taken from Haydn's middle period, all written between 1773-1776 when he was loyally at the service of Prince Nikolaus Esterházy. I find it fascinating that even within the context of Haydn's 60 continuous years of composition, and given the vast development and change in his style – moving from the early Classical period and Style Galant, through the Empfindsamkeit and C P E Bach's influence, to establishing and refining what is now the essence of "The Classical Style" – Haydn displays in a short period of three years an astonishing diversity of compositional techniques, modes of expression, style and characters."

    "Most of the six selected sonatas, she continues, "are also quite rarely heard on the concert stage, have not been recorded often, and surprisingly few fine pianists have been exposed to them. Aside to the joy of indulging in this rich repertoire, I hope with this CD to shed light on some of those wonderful 'neglected' sonatas, as well as contribute to the growing revival of interest in Haydn's genius as a keyboard composer."
