Programme Notes
"I try to imagine Haydn as a small boy, in his birthplace of such a unique imaginative name. His first musical impressions.

Maybe an old cart with hungry, tired horses and funny folk musicians and their kids drove past, maybe the wheels creaked while they were playing, maybe the whole thing broke apart and the musicians had to glue the instruments back together.

Perhaps a chicken was so inspired by the music or frightened that it brought an unusually large number of eggs.

Maybe Haydn only dreamt all this."
