Stephen Malinowski's Animations for Haydn's Opus 20 Quartets
Haydn's fugal writing is simply extraordinary. I first encountered it while singing his Creation when I was thirteen, and have thought of his fugal writing as "exalted reigns" ever since. My invented term comes from the passage "He sole on high, exalted reigns," in the "Achieved is his glorious work" section of the Creation. Here's a post I wrote in 2007 about those "exalted reigns."
Here's Malinowski's Haydn Opus 20 playlist (so far, it is a work in progress).
