Haydn

On these recordings, Yoel Levi leads the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra in fresh and vibrant performances of two Haydn symphonies - the middle-period, six-movement Symphony No.60 and the composer's well-known Symphony No.104, his final effort in the genre. Levi also accompanies the recording debut of 12-year-old Israeli prodigy Maya Tamir in Haydn's Piano Concerto No.11. Tamir, born in Hod Hasharon, is the daughter of a native Israeli father and a mother who immigrated to Israel from Russia. She has been playing publicly for years, and has attracted the attention of classical music enthusiasts the world over.
