First in a series of orchestral works, based on several of Haydn's marvelous string quartets. As a result of the carefully crafted orchestration, including the addition of woodwinds, brass and timpani, the zest , humor and joy of Papa's free-flowing composition are wonderfully enhanced. While always protecting the integrity of the original, Myers' orchestration clarifies the inferred dynamics by skillfully blending all the colors available in a virtuoso chamber orchestra.
