Franz Joseph Haydn: Violoncello Concerto

? l??poque de Joseph Haydn les concertos de soliste ?taient g?n?ralement destin?s ? un musicien bien pr?cis. Dans le cas du c?l?bre concerto pour violoncelle en r? majeur Hob. VII:2 de Haydn il s?agit du premier violoncelle de l?orchestre du prince Esterh?zy Anton Kraft qui devint par la suite l?un des plus grands virtuoses de Vienne. Cette ?uvre de circonstance devint par la suite un chef-d??uvre pour l??ternit? dont est parvenue ? la post?rit? une partition autographe de la main du compositeur dat?e de 1783. Pour la publication de la r?duction pour piano de ce concerto nous avons eu le plaisir de collaborer avec la sp?cialiste de Haydn Sonja Gerlach. Cette derni?reenrichit l??dition urtext d?une pr?face d?taill?e o? elle aborde notamment le sujet de la r?alisation des ornements et celui des cadences reproduites.

Violoncello-Based on the Henle Complete Edition of the Works of Joseph HaydnOrchestral parts in a large format (25.5 x 32.5 cm)Full score and orchestral parts available for saleHaydn's Symphonies no.90 91 and 92 were commissioned in 1788 by Prince Kraft Ernst von Oettingen-Wallerstein who was to be granted exclusive ownership. Haydn however first sold the works to the Parisian Masonic lodge Société Olympique and was thus unable to fulfil his obligation to send the autograph scores to the prince.Haydn's Symphony No.92 received its nickname ?Oxford? in the 19th century probably in connectionwith a performance that took place when the composer received an honorary doctorate from Oxford University in 1791.This edition continues the collaboration between Bärenreiter and the Henle publishing company regarding Haydn?s large-scale choral works operas and symphonies. It is based on the Henle Complete Edition of the Works of Joseph Haydn. Bärenreiter has published the complete performance material for several Sturm und Drang symphonies and all of the London and Paris symphonies.

This edition clarifies a performance aspect of Haydn?s Symphony in G major that has long been misunderstood: in m. 1 of the second movement (Largo) the viola violoncello and several wind instrument parts are marked ?solo? indicating that they play important motifs or themes and ought to stand out.Contrary to other editions the ?solo? marking in the violoncello should not be construed as indicating a solo instrument with the remaining cellos doubling the basses. Rather the cellos should play as a section so as to stand out all the more clearly.Continuing the collaboration between Bärenreiter and the Henle publishing company in large-scalechoral works operas and symphonies this edition is based on the Henle Complete Edition of the ?Works of Joseph Haydn? .

Haydn’s Concerto for Violoncello and Orchestra in C major (Hob. VIIb:1) was probably composed between 1762 and 1765 when he was already director of music to Prince Esterh zy. It may have been writtenfor the cellist in the court Orchestra Joseph Weigl (1740-1820) for whom Haydn most likely also wrote the solo Cello parts in his early symphonies. Weigl was a member of the Esterh zy ensemble from 1761 to 1769 andthereafter served as a principle cellist in various Viennese ensembles.The concerto was rediscovered by Oldrich Pulkert who in 1961 found an eighteenth-century manuscript copy (Prag National Museum Fonds Radenin) andpublished the concerto in 1962. Previously the existence of this piece was known only through Haydn’s entry in his private list of works (the so-called ‘Entwurf’ [‘draft’] catalogue).The Orchestral setting ismodest: besides the Strings (with a non-obligato Bassoon doubling the Bass part) there are two Oboes and two Horns which are reserved almost exclusively for the tutti passages.This Piano reduction is based on the text givenin the complete edition of Haydn’s works as edited by the Joseph Haydn Institute Cologne (Joseph Haydn Werke Series III Vol.2 with Preface and Critical Report published by G. Henle Verlag Munich 1981). The Cello partin the Piano reduction is identical to that of the complete edition and thus follows the Prague source as closely as possible even in the expression marks and in certain peculiarities of notation.

Urtext edition-This four-movement work with a slow introduction is Haydn?s last symphony for ?Small? Orchestra i.e. without Trumpets and Timpani.

Concerto and ripieno part-Haydn's Symphony No.8 is the final piece in his triptych on the times of the day consisting of the symphonies Le Matin Le Midi and Le Soir (Hoboken I:6-8). The cycle originated in 1761 on a commission from Haydn's patron Prince Anton Esterházy. Whether the Prince was hoping for a counterpart to Vivaldi's famous concertos on the four seasons or pursued a different idea can no longer be determined. It was doubtless the purpose of these concertante symphonies to present to a select audience the Prince's chamber ensemble which had been assembled or expanded that spring as well as its new conductor. The pieces are laid out on a large scale full of pomp andsplendour and the scoring at times divided into thirteen separate parts offers virtually every player an opportunity to display his prowess as a soloist.At that time the Esterházy ensemble was made up of six or seven players of the violin or viola (the seventh was actually retained as a flautist) one player each of the violoncello and violone two oboists doubling on flute two horn players and a bassoonist. This listing includes Haydn himself who conducted the ensemble from the first violinist's desk. Contrary to a widely held belief there was no harpsichord. Indeed the only genres that employed a keyboard instrument at that time in the Viennese area were vocal - namely operas cantatas and church music.Urtext from Joseph Haydn WerkeFull score & parts (BA4673) available for sale

C major-Concert for violoncello and orchestra. Urtext from: Joseph Haydn Werke G. Henle Verlag München

Though not nearly as well-known as the 'London Trios ' these six delightful divertimentos are Haydn's first pieces of chamber music to expressly call for the flute. Straightforward and full of Haydn's esprit they are a treasuretrove for all lovers of music-making in the home. The stylistic variety of these cheerful pièces d'occasion surely reflects the fact that they are partly based on earlier models: Haydn's baryton trios as well as arias and otheritems from his opera 'Il mondo della luna' ('The World on the Moon').

London with its bustling musical scene always provided Haydn with welcome surroundings at a time when the Flute was extraordinarily popular among English amateurs. The Earl of Abingdon an accomplished flautist undoubtedly enjoyed playing these entertaining trios. Abingdon was a member of Haydn?s circle of acquaintances in London and a composer in his own right: a theme from one of his songs (?The Lady?s Mirror?) servedHaydn for a set of variations in the second trio. Neither of the men could have foreseen the huge success that these cheerful and straightforward pieces would enjoy among music-lovers all over the world.
