I've started listening to #Hadyn 's symphonies in order and ranking them. I love them! So far I think 1 and 4 are my favorites, but they're all fantastic. Let me know if you have any favorites! (performances too). #Classicalmusicsky #Hadyn

CLÁSICA:
Por fin he completado la serie de Sinfonías de Londres (de la 92 al 104) de Josep Haydn interpretadas por Adam Fischer y la Danish Chamber Orchestra para el sello discográfico Naxos. Cuatro excelentes CD muy recomendables.

Haydn - Surprise Symphony on Celtic Harp YouTube video by NEW Community Harp

A portion of the Surprise Symphony by #Hadyn on #harp. It was written so that his up and coming pupil's work wouldn't outshine him. Since I can't recall the pupil's name, it looks like it worked.

The 'Theater-Kalender' was no exception. It records where troupes performed and what they staged. #Distantreading helps to reconstruct and rehabilitate the musico-theatrical repertoire of #CentralEurope at the time of #Mozart, #Hadyn, and young #Beethoven. 4/14

G.F. #Handel died #OTD, may he RIP.

For #Hadyn, "He is the master of us all."

"The only person I would wish to be", for #Bach and #Mozart.

For #Beethoven? "Handel is the greatest #composer that ever lived, to him I bow the knee down on his tomb."
