Haydn

A breakfast meeting was arranged between Haydn and members of the court orchestra at Bad Godesberg, close to Bonn.

His speeches have the elegance and control of a Haydn concerto.

Then came two pieces by the orchestra; next, my three solos in a row, and a symphony of Haydn closed the programme.

Francis Joseph Haydn, the celebrated musical composer, died.

The following day Peter Ilich told me the work was very nice, in the style of Haydn.

Here is another that I cannot leave out: Haydn dedicated one of his most important instrumental compositions to his mother.

Haydn passed on Lidley's book to him, van Swieten had it translated and doctored to suit his own taste, and Haydn set to work.
