Joseph Haydn
Originally intended for the priesthood, he joined the choir at St. Stephen’s Cathedral in Vienna at the age of eight, where he developed his skills in violin and keyboard. After leaving the choir, Haydn supported himself by teaching and performing violin while immersing himself in the study of counterpoint and harmony.
Through his association with Metastasio, Haydn gained access to the upper echelons of society. In 1761, he assumed the position of the head of the musical establishment at the esteemed Esterházy family’s grand palace, where he would find support for the majority of his career.
Often regarded as the pioneer of the symphony, Haydn composed 106 symphonies, including the renowned final 12 known as the “London symphonies” (1791–95). He also played a pivotal role in the development of the string quartet, with his 68 quartets remaining foundational in the genre. Additionally, he contributed 14 masses and the oratorios The Creation (1798) and The Seasons (1801) to the choral repertoire. Haydn’s compositional output further encompassed 47 piano sonatas and over 125 beautiful compositions for the baryton, an instrument similar to the cello.
