This last of the surviving C major sonatas was written during Haydn's second London sojourn in 1794/95 for the pianist Terese Jansen, Mrs Bartolozzi. It seems to have been a very personal expression o...

The preface by Christin Heitmann provides illuminating background information. Haydn did not assign the nickname 'Sun Quartets': it alludes to an edition of the time, in which the title page was decor...

Haydn allowed about ten years to pass before composing a new cycle of string quartets after opus 20: the so-called 'Russian Quartets'. This is the first series of quartets that we know he wrote with p...

Entre las sonatas para piano de Haydn, la gran Sonata en mi bemol mayor es particularmente popular. Fue compuesta en 1794 durante la segunda estancia de Haydn en Londres, donde conoció el nuevo fortep...

The piano sonatas in this volume were presumably written for teaching purposes and probably even before Haydn's appointment to the court of Prince Esterházy in 1761. The designation 'Little early Sona...

Haydn's c-minor Sonata is shot through by a passionate, dark, at times sullen mood. It may be regarded as the Viennese classicist's own 'Appassionata' - a great triumph! It is almost inconceivable tha...

Who is not familiar with Haydn's C major Sonata, with its fanfare-like, staccato triadic opening? Lesser-known, but at least equally charming, are the cantabile central movement and playful finale. Th...

The Weinzierl castle in Lower Austria, which still stands today, can be considered to be the birthplace of a chamber music genre, which is firmly established in our present-day repertoire. The young H...

Six works belong to opus 9 - the first group of Haydn's string quartets of which we know. The composer also went new ways as far as form was concerned: whereas he had still adhered to the five movemen...

The autograph score of the Quartets op. 17 was in the possession of the imperial police chief Johann Nepomuk Neuwirth, whose widow gave it to the Wiener Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in 1875. It is sa...
