Haydn
composed his Symphony No.
77 along with his
Symphonies Nos. 76 and 78
for a planned journey to
England that never took
place. Nonetheless, H.C.
Robbins Landon calls
these works the
“English
symphonies†as they
are stylistically closely
linked to the
“London
Bachâ€, Johann
Christian Bach. Haydn
himself, in a letter of
1783 to his Parisian
publisher Charles-Georges
Boyer, described the
symphonies as
‘Leicht und nicht
vil Concertirendâ€,
meaning that they were
light in spirit and did
not contain extensive
solo passages but rather
a clear sense of
classical
form.
Continuing
the cooperation between
Bärenreiter and the G.
Henle publisher regarding
Haydn’s
large-scale choral works,
operas and symphonies,
this edition is based on
the G. Henle Complete
Edition of the
“Works of Joseph
Haydnâ€. The
Bärenreiter catalogue
now includes the complete
performance material for
several “Sturm und
Drang†symphonies
as well as all the London
and Paris
symphonies.
