Haydn’s charming and sole piano quintet is for such an unusual combination of instruments - two horns and piano trio - that hardly any musicians are familiar with it. Horn players will get their money’s worth in this very early work by Haydn (ca. 1765), and pianists and string players are also kept busy. Our edition is based on the flawless musical text in the Haydn Complete Edition. We hope that a great many horn players will discover our edition and that the work will finally be able to emerge from the shadows!

About the Composer

Joseph Haydn

His immense oeuvre documents the profound changes in music history during the second half of the eighteenth century, leading to the emancipation of instrumental music. His most important genres are the symphony and the string quartet, where he cultivated the technique of motivic-thematic development; he made significant contributions to the instrumental concerto and to piano music; during the last years of his life, he composed his great oratorios. Opera and art song take on a rather subordinate significance.
