Farewell

Album by Joseph Haydn & Isang Yun & Münchener Kammerorchester & Alexander Liebreich

Farewell is the informal name of Symphony No. 45, a symphony by Austrian composer Joseph Haydn, composed in 1772. Scored for a Classical-era orchestra, it features abrupt harmonic shifts and a theatrical final movement that stages the gradual departure of musicians from the stage, reflecting a practical gesture at the time and illustrating Haydn's developing use of dramatic effects in his middle-period orchestral works.
