Composer du jour

Haydn

1732-1809. Classical period. 

“Father of the Symphony” and “Father of the String Quartet” 

You can hear a little bit of Mozart in Haydn's work - or technically, you can hear a lot of Haydn in Mozart.

Haydn mentored both Mozart and Beethoven. Not too shabby. Spotify: Symphony #104
