Background

I am preparing to travel and then travelling this week and next, so I will not be doing any formal discussions today and next week. Instead, we will listen to some music from the contemporaries of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven. I will announce the items, but I would like you to pay attention to the strong similarity of style between these composers. This is because all were writing during the 18th century in the prevalent style which was at first moving from Baroque into the polite Classical, especially Viennese Classical period.

These selections showcase the Classical style and highlight the contributions of lesser-known composers alongside these greats.

These two programmes balance instrumental variety and stylistic depth, featuring symphonies, concertos, chamber works, and solo repertoire from composers who shaped and enriched the Classical style.
