Historical Context

Around 1775, the opera activities at Esterháza Castle were flourishing, leading to an expansion of the orchestra, including the bassoon section.

Composer's Artistic Vision

Johannes Klumpp, the conductor, aims to "bring music to the people" and regularly moderates his concerts to encourage dialogue with the audience.

Composition History

Haydn received an invitation from London in 1782, which he wanted to accept, and may have prepared for the trip by writing six symphonies, but his employer did not grant him permission to travel.

Recording & Production

The symphonies on this album are ordered chronologically, based on research by Dr. Sonja Gerlach of the Haydn Institute in Cologne, rather than the traditional Hoboken numbering system.
