Von der Existenz der sieben verschollenen Klaviersonaten Hob. XVI: 2a-e und g-h wissen wir lediglich durch die Eintragungen in den sogenannten Entwurf-Katalog, dessen Hauptteil Ende 1765 entstand. Haydn führte den Katalog bis 1777 fort, indem er von Zeit zu Zeit die jeweils neu komponierten Werke ergänzte. Entstanden sind die Sonaten vermutlich in der Zeit zwischen 1766 und 1772. Die Tatsache, dass die Sonaten verschollen sind, wird häufig mit dem Brand, dem Haydns Haus in Eisenstadt im Jahr 1768 zum Opfer fiel, in Verbindung gebracht. Der Zeitraum 1766 bis 1772 deckt sich ziemlich genau mit der häufig, jedoch nur unzureichend charakterisierend Sturm und Drang-Zeit genannten Schaffensphase des Komponisten, die den Höhepunkt einer Phase intensiven Experimentierens und Suchens nach neuen Wegen auf fast allen für Haydn besonders bedeutsamen Gebieten der Instrumentalmusik, der Symphonie, dem Streichquartett und der Klaviersonate, bildet. Da die Eintragungen im Entwurf-Katalog lediglich die ersten zwei bis vier Takte der je ersten Sätze der Sonaten wiedergeben, musste der Verfasser nicht nur den restlichen Verlauf der Eröffnungssätze weitgehend selbst erdichten, er war auch bei der Gesamtanlage der Sonaten (Anzahl und musikalischer Inhalt der übrigen Sätze) insofern auf sich allein gestellt, als der Entwurf-Katalog hierüber keine Auskunft gibt. Als stilistische Vorbilder dienten naturgemäß die im genannten Zeitraum komponierten und erhaltenen Sonaten. Darüber hinaus hat der Verfasser versucht, eine möglichst große Bandbreite der verschiedenen Formen, die in Haydns Musik dieses Zeitraums zu finden sind, abzubilden. Ebenso differenziert und zur Nachahmung herausfordernd ist der Abwechslungsreichtum der Satztechniken, die Haydn verwendet. Dem Vorbild Haydns folgend sind vor allem die dynamischen Angaben auf ein Minimum reduziert und sollen bewusst Raum zur eigenen fantasievollen Interpretation lassen. (Thomas Enselein).

Only eleven of the over one hundred symphonies by Joseph Haydn are composed in a minor key. Written in the early 1770s, the Symphony Hob. I:52 in C minor bears some similarities to the slightly earlier Symphony in E minor Hob. I:44 (“Mourningâ€, BA 10988), not only because they both are composed in a minor key but also because they both feature a pair of horns tuned at different pitches. Haydn seems to have experimented with differently tuned horns inspired by an article in Johann Adam Hiller’s journal “Musikalische Nachrichten und Anmerkungen†of July 1770, which suggested to tune the horns a minor third apart in order to expand the total horn range. While Haydn followed this recommendation just like that in the E-minor symphony, he chose to have the horns tuned a major sixth apart (high C and E-flat) in the outer movements of the C-minor symphony Hob. I:52, resulting in an unusual horn sound within the orchestral texture.In continuation of the collaboration between Bärenreiter and G. Henle Verlag, this edition is based on the Urtext of the Complete Edition “Joseph Haydn Works†published by G. Henle Verlag.

Haydn’s Symphony in C major Hob. I: 90, dated 1788 in the autograph, belongs to a group of works that he composed between the Paris symphonies (Hob. I: 82–87) and the London symphonies (Hob. I: 93–104). It thus belongs to the last symphonies he wrote before his journeys to England in 1791–92 and 1794–95. Continuing the collaboration between Bärenreiter and the G. Henle publishing company 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. With Symphony No. 90, Bärenreiter has now published the complete performance material for all the symphonies from Nos. 82 to 104 as well as several Sturm und Drang symphonies.

Along with Symphonies Nos. 79 and 81, Haydn’s D-minor Symphony Hob. I:80 belongs to a set of symphonies that he completed in late 1784. He wrote them for his employer Prince Nikolaus Esterházy, his task being to entertain the prince with new music. The symphonies had to be suitable for the twenty-five to thirty musicians who were in the prince’s orchestra. Continuing the cooperation between Bärenreiter and the G. Henle publishing company regarding Haydn’s large choral works, operas and symphonies, this edition is based on the G. Henle Complete Edition of the “Works of Joseph Haydnâ€.Bärenreiter has already published the complete performance material for several “Sturm und Drang†symphonies and all the London and Paris symphonies.

Haydn’s Symphony in G major Hob. I:81 comes from a series of three symphonies completed in late 1784 (nos. 81, 80 and 79, presumably in that order). No autograph score survives for Hob. I:81, thus our Urtext edition is based on copyists’ manuscripts and first editions. As with so many of his symphonies, Haydn wrote this one to provide new music for his employer, Prince Nikolaus Esterházy.Continuing the collaboration between Bärenreiter and the G. Henle publishing company 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.

The symphonies were tailored for the twenty-five to thirty musicians who were in the prince’s court orchestra.Continuing the cooperation between Bärenreiter and the G.

Along with Symphonies Nos. 76 and 77 Haydn composed Symphony No. 78 for a journey to England that never took place. Nonetheless, H. C. Robbins Landon referred to these works as the “English Symphonies†as they are stylistically closely linked to “the London Bachâ€, Johann Christian Bach. In a letter Haydn wrote to his Paris publisher Charles-Georges Boyer in 1783, he described the works as “Leicht und nicht vil Concertirendâ€, meaning 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 publishing company 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€. To date, Bärenreiter has published the complete performance material for several of Haydn’s “Sturm und Drang†symphonies as well as the complete London and Paris symphonies.

Letters of the composer have come down to us only on a few of Haydn’s symphonies, amongst them the “Laudon†Symphony Hob. I:69. In one of these letters, Haydn agrees to the publisher’s suggestion to name the symphony after the widely known and favoured general Gideon Ernst von Laudon (1717-1790). By using this name, both composer and publisher hoped to increase the commercial success of the work which possibly deserved a military eponym considering its instrumentation with timpani and trumpets. Also, the symphony requires two bassoons, but no flutes, corresponding with the available musicians at the court of Esterházy between 1775 and 1776. In continuation of the collaboration between Bärenreiter and G. Henle Verlag, this edition is based on the Urtext of the Complete Edition “Joseph Haydn Works†published by G. Henle Verlag.

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 “soloâ€, 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-scale choral works, operas and symphonies, this edition is based on the Henle Complete Edition of the “Works of Joseph Haydnâ€. The complete performance material for several “Sturm und Drang†symphonies and all of the London and Paris symphonies is now available from Bärenreiter.
