description
Johann Baptist Vaňhal was one of the most popular Viennese composers during his lifetime. History, however, has been unkind to his reputation, the result of irresponsible statements that were made by imaginative authors who were neither acquainted with him personally nor his circumstances. Wild claims have been made that early in his career he was so overcome by madness caused by religious fervour that he burned some of his music and thereafter the quality of compositions deteriorated so much that he never realised the promise of his early works. The absurdity of this assertion is at once apparent from the works on this recording which includes a brilliant minor-key symphony dating from the early 1760s and the masterly A flat symphony composed a decade later. His immense vitality and inventiveness are evident in both and illustrate why Vaňhal was considered such an important exponent of the genre.
