Symphony No. 104 "London" / Symphony No. 100 "Military"
Album by Joseph Haydn & Academy of Ancient Music & Christopher Hogwood
This release is a pairing of two late orchestral symphonies by Joseph Haydn, composed and first performed in the mid-1790s. Musically it exemplifies late Classical-era orchestral writing with clear sonata forms, inventive thematic development, expanded wind and percussion colour and theatrical contrasts of mood, and it occupies a central place in Haydn's London-period output as part of his concluding symphonic work that influenced subsequent symphonic practice.
First released: 1984
