Description

Joseph Haydn (1732–1809) significantly expanded and enhanced various musical forms in which he worked, including symphonies, quartets, sonatas, masses, and oratorios, characterized by exceptional expressiveness, innovative perspectives, and exquisite musicianship. His "Nelson" Mass and Mass in Time of War stand out as two of his most remarkable compositions, ostensibly linked to themes of war, yet deeply imbued with a spirit of devotion and exemplary in their sophisticated integration of vocal and instrumental elements.

Created in the early 19th century, this collection features several transcriptions of instrumental works. These expertly crafted miniatures are particularly well-suited for keyboard performance, showcasing Haydn's signature humor, tenderness, charm, and passion. The selections offer intermediate pianists a rich array of musical ideas and harmonic creativity, presenting a level of difficulty comparable to Haydn's Sonatinas.

Description

The early keyboard compositions by Haydn were initially referred to as Divertimentos or Sonatas, but their concise structure led to a subsequent renaming. Each piece typically consists of two to four movements, encapsulating the core elements of Haydn's musical style. Among these works, the "Sonatina in G Major," Hob. XVI/8 stands out as the most recognized, yet all of them merit attention as foundational studies in preparation for the sonatas of both Mozart and Haydn.

Description

Haydn's piano sonatas are essential works in the moderately challenging piano repertoire. This is not just because of their technical accessibility, but also their wit and creativity. In addition to several individual movements of relative ease, this collection includes two complete sonatas, allowing performers to explore the full dramatic arc of multi-movement compositions. We have also included delightful piano arrangements that Haydn made of his own works, such as the slow movement from his String Quartet Op. 76, No. 3, whose theme is now widely recognized as the German national anthem.
