Haydn Symphonies No. 94 “Surprise” & No. 101 “Clock” Monteux & Vienna Philharmonic 12" Vinyl

A distinguished recording of two of Joseph Haydn’s most inventive symphonies, Symphony No. 94 “Surprise” and Symphony No. 101 “Clock”, performed by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Pierre Monteux.

This 12" vinyl (single LP) highlights Haydn’s wit, structural elegance, and rhythmic ingenuity across two landmark works of the Classical era. The playful sudden dynamic shift of the “Surprise” Symphony and the steady ticking pulse of the “Clock” Symphony are both delivered with clarity and character.

Under Monteux’s refined and natural conducting style, the Vienna Philharmonic performs with lightness, transparency, and balanced phrasing—allowing Haydn’s humor and architectural precision to shine without excess.

A tasteful and historically rich vinyl release for collectors of Classical symphonic repertoire and elegant orchestral interpretations.
