Joseph Haydn, one of the most influential composers in classical music is famous for his sym - phonies and his chamber music. His piano sonatas are in our daily concert life only some little pieces to start the evening with. That ´s why there are only very few complete recordings of all the sonatas in their original form. We think it is about time to correct that, to produce a new complete recording of these wonderful pieces that were a massive inspiration for Mozart, Beethoven an many others. It will take us 6 years to complete this edition with 11 CDs.
