Symphonies nos. 101 & 103

Album by Joseph Haydn & Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century & Frans Brüggen

Symphonies nos. 101 and 103 are a pair of orchestral symphonies by Joseph Haydn, composed and first performed in the mid-1790s during his London period. They exemplify Haydn's mature Classical style, featuring clear sonata structures, prominent wind writing, and inventive rhythmic and orchestral colour, and they occupy a key place among his late 'London' symphonies in the development of the symphonic genre.
First released: 1988
