Johann Baptist Vaňhal war zu Lebzeiten einer der beliebtesten Wiener Komponisten. Die Geschichte ist jedoch seinem Ruf nicht wohlgesonnen, das Ergebnis unverantwortlicher Äußerungen fantasievoller Autoren, die weder ihn noch seine Lebensumstände kannten. Der allgemeine Eindruck ist, dass er melancholisch und depressiv war, obwohl er in Wahrheit im Grunde glücklich und sympathisch gewesen zu sein scheint. Es sind auch wilde Behauptungen aufgestellt worden, dass er zu Beginn seiner Karriere von religiösem Eifer verursachter Verrücktheit so überwältigt wurde, dass er einen Teil seiner Musik verbrannte. Danach, so heißt es, verschlechterte sich die Qualität der Kompositionen so sehr, dass er das Versprechen seiner frühen Werke nie einlöste.
Die Lüge zu dieser Aussage wird durch die prächtigen Sinfonien auf dieser CD widerlegt. Sie enthält die Sinfonia in C-Dur, C3, eines seiner frühesten Werke, zusammen mit drei seiner späteren, darunter die Sinfonia in D-Dur, D17, die wohl eine seiner letzten ist. Seine Vitalität und sein Erfindungsreichtum sind in allen von ihnen offensichtlich.
Die vier hier enthaltenen Sinfonien bieten eine gute Einführung in den symphonischen Stil von Vaňhal und veranschaulichen, warum er als so wichtiger Exponent dieser Gattung galt.
Johann Baptist Vaňhal was one of the most popular Viennese composers during his lifetime. History has, however, been unkind to his reputation, the result of irresponsible statements that were made by imaginative authors who were not acquainted with him or his circumstances. The general impression is that he was melancholy and depressed when, in truth, he appears to have been basically happy and personable. Wild claims have also been made that early in his career he was so overcome by madness caused by religious fervour that he burned some of his music. After that, the story goes, the quality of compositions deteriorated so much that he never realised the promise of his early works.
The lie to this assertion is given by the splendid symphonies included on this CD. It contains the Sinfonia in C major, C3, one of his earliest works, along with three of his later ones, including the Sinfonia in D major, D17, which I believe to be one of his last. His vitality and inventiveness are evident in all of them.
The four symphonies included here provide a good introduction to Vaňhal's symphonic style and illustrate why he was considered such an important exponent of the genre.
