Haydn 2032, Vol. 17: Per il Luigi

2025Alpha 1146Orchestra

The 17th volume of the complete Haydn 2032 collection and presents a number of Haydn’s earliest symphonies, composed to display the talent of the musicians who had joined the Esterházy court orchestra during the same period as Haydn himself. The center of the program is the Symphony No. 13 in D major from 1763, whose orchestration includes four horns and whose final movement features a prefiguration of the famous theme of Mozart’s “Jupiter” symphony, which was still twenty-five years in the future. The violin concerto in C major is marked “fatto per il Luigi” in Haydn’s catalogue of works and was dedicated to his friend Luigi Tomasini, a violin virtuoso born in Pesaro.
