This week and last I have been preparing to travel and then travelling, so I will not be doing any sort of formal discussion today. Instead we will simply listen to some music of the contemporaries of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven. I will announce the items, but what I would like you to pay attention to is 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, and 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.
