Publisher's Summary:
Franz Joseph Haydn was an Austrian composer of the Classical period. He was instrumental in the development of chamber music such as the string quartet and piano trio. His contributions to musical form have led him to be called "Father of the Symphony" and "Father of the String Quartet". (Wikipedia) Haydn's creative life spanned the latter half of the eighteenth century and more than any other musician of his period, he was responsible for the evolution of the Viennese classical style. He was a humble man, largely self-taught, who in his later years became the doyen of the English musical scene. This fascinating biodrama is a listening must for lovers of the Viennese style.
