I'd like to add to my Haydn symphony collection, and I'm looking for
some advice/recommendations. My taste runs to the HIP side, perhaps more
specifically to the small-orchestra side. I've got one of the Philips Duo
disks of Londons with Davis. I've also got a "Sturm and Drang" set from
L'Archibudelli. Leaving other issues aside, I clearly prefer the
L'Archibudelli "sound."
I've looked around for any of the Norrington sets recorded in the 1990s,
but couldn't find them. It looks like both Goodman/Hanover and Hogwood/AAM
are both to be found. Are these winners, or do you have other suggestions?
