The Symphonies Nos. 96-104

Album by Joseph Haydn & Philharmonia Hungarica & Antal Doráti

The Symphonies Nos. 96–104 are a set of orchestral works by Austrian composer Joseph Haydn, composed and first performed during his London visits between 1791 and 1795. Musically they exemplify Haydn's late-classical style, featuring expanded orchestration, dramatic contrasts of mood and form, and innovations in thematic development that reflect his maturity and his engagement with large-scale public concerts in the final phase of his career.
