Joseph Haydn wrote 104 symphonies, the one called "Salomon" was his last. it was premiered in London in 1795, and Haydn raved about the ideal conditions there. The Dutch conductor and early music specialist Jan Willem de Vriend, on the other hand, raves about Zurich and our orchestra, with which he has been working for several years now: "In the specialised baroque ensembles, it happens that the musicians tell you they already know how to do it," says de Vriend; "in the Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich, on the other hand, I sense a great openness and joy in experimenting The result will be heard not only in Haydn, but also in a rarely performed symphony by Johann Christian Bach.
