The Haydn symphonies Hob. I :82 -87, which make up the so-called “ Paris ” symphonies, were commissioned for the Concert de la Loge Olympique in 1784. The Symphony in A major, Hob. I :87 was composed in 1785 and renumbered as no. 1 in a letter from Haydn to the publisher Artaria in 1787. The Paris symphonies achieved a nearly unparalleled success being performed numerous times and published within a short period of time in Paris , London and Vienna .

The Haydn Complete Edition of Symphony no. 87 is based on the autograph and the three first editions of the symphony.
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 Haydn”.
