Joseph Haydn: Sinfonie Es-Dur Hob. I:103 (mit Paukenwirbel): Orchestra: StudyFormat : Study Score / Miniature Symphony in Eb major Hob. I:103 (Drumroll)-The twelve London Symphonies comprise the sublime final statement of Haydn s symphonic uvre. They were written for the London impresario Johann Peter Salomon and Haydn himself conducted their premieres during his lengthy stays in the English metropolis in 1791/92 and 1794/95. The E-flat-major Symphony no. 103 was composed in 1795 as the penultimate of the London Symphonies. It owes its epithet to its unique beginning: a solo drumroll in the timpani ushers in the slow introduction. This opening bar marked with Haydn s heading Intrada and a pause even inspires many a performer to venture a short timpani improvisation. This study edition adopts the musical text of the HaydnComplete Edition thereby guaranteeing the highest scholarly quality. An informative preface and a brief Critical Report make the handy score an ideal companion for all current and soon-to-be Haydn fans. Instrumentation : Publisher : |
