Haydn is the father of the symphony. His music is amazing in harmony, grace and elegance. Viva Haydn a true genius of music that gives us unforgettable moments of pleasure and haunting music. Bravissimo
@@mijoree This box has now been updated to include all 104 numbered symphonies plus ‘A’ and ‘B’. It remains an essential reference point, and starter edition, from which you can add different types of performances - harpsichord continuo, modern instruments, larger/smaller scale, et cetera - at your leisure.
He recorrido las 103 sinfonías del maestro Haydn (casi 7 meses en dicha gozosa tarea)....es una aventura que aconsejo a los amantes del género sinfonía.... Gracias
@@Lupito44 Giuseppe Haydn scrisse 107 sinfonie: Sinfonie 1-104 (Hob. I:1-104) La sinfonia di Le pescatrici (Hob. I:106) Sinfonia ‘A’ (Hob. I:107) Sinfonia ‘B’ (Hob. I:108) Il mancante Hob. I:105 è la sinfonia concertante
You’re quite right that this is a very special symphony by Joseph (sic) Haydn, and amongst the total of 107 (sic), it is indeed exceptionally beautiful and graceful. I think too, that it is one of Haydn’s most smoothly, suavely, elegant symphonies - about as close to ‘Mozartian’ as Haydn ever got;* the other thing I might add to the qualities you listed is the significant amount of contrapuntal work in the outer movements. In short, you’re right - it’s a great symphony. * Symphony 77 was written in 1782, when Haydn had not yet met Mozart, and barely knew a note of his music at that time.
@@Alix777. The 1st and 4th movements have a considerable amount of contrapuntal mastery woven into the sonata-type music; the 2nd movement is very sensuous in a particularly Haydnesque manner, whilst the 3rd is a sharp contrast. Your quite right about that ‘The first movement is so good’, so is the rest, it’s a very fine symphony.
Thank you for this upload, CbN. Yet another wonderful Haydn symphony. That minuet - just adorably GORGEOUS

Thanks for posting this amazing piece, it is helping me a lot to study music history at University. And the most important: it is amazing, it makes me feel as if it is paradise.
There is a sruprisingly similar Andante second movement in Schubert's Second Symphony. Did Schubert know and imitate this second movement of Joseph Haydn's Symphony 77?
1782 - La tendenza contrappuntistica, sensibile in tutte le fasi dell'evoluzione haydniana, si accentua a scapito dell'elemento concertante, come conferma lo stesso Haydn in una lettera. E' una reazione, un ritorno alla rigida disciplina dopo tante libertà formali. Ma, anziché impoverire la fantasia, la nuova direzione presa da Haydn porta a conquiste inaspettate. Lo stile "intellettuale", secondo la definizione di Robbins Landon, non ha nulla di arido, bensì reca alimento all'aspirazione e, imponendo ai tempi contorni netti, rende il quadro generale della sinfonia ancora più chiaro e attraente.

@@elaineblackhurst1509 Hello I commented this three months earlier. Now I realise I am wrong, but it's the lyrical sublimity and instrumentation (winds) of the moment that made me say that comment. I am not referring to technical capabilities , but the sublime moments that I find in Mozart's Symphonies.
This one was written for performance in London. Robins-Landon describes 77 as a 'towering masterpiece". Maybe an exaggeration but it comes just after some of Haydn`s less inspiring 74-5.
Haydn 77 is a very fine symphony in every respect, but just to put it into context, written in 1782, it is contemporaneous with Mozart 35 - the first of Mozart’s last six, and by some distance greatest of his symphonies which were all written after his move to Vienna the year before. Compared to almost everything by everyone else - and Mozart’s symphonies prior to the ‘Haffner’ - Haydn 77 is a greater work than any other contemporary symphony apart from others by himself.
One of my favourite Haydn symphonies of all time! utterly sublime in every manner
1:16 resemblance
2:42 brief resemblance to 4th movement of Haydn's 76th symphony

I'm constantly amazed at how wonderful Haydn's symphonies are. Up to this summer, I was acquainted with only very few of them.
There is a wonderful box of 33 CDs with 80 Haydn symphonies played by the AAM under Hogwood. Big bargain (50 euros) and supreme quality.
Thank you for the info!

Thank you for posting this symphony conducted by C. Hogwood. I couldn't find the BBC Music Magazine when it offered this CD. Eternal regret.

En ello estoy
A delightful garden of musical ecstacy first time to hear this remarkable symphony and loving every measure ❤
I love all 104 symphonies of Papa Haydn but this one stands out as one of my favorites because of its beauty and grace. 👍🏼

The first movement is so good.

Schubert did study Haydn ( Mozart and Beethoven as well) while a youngster in 1808 at the City Boarding school (Stadtkonvikt school) in Vienna.

True gaiety!
After 2:57 he attains Mozarts level
In terms of the symphony, Mozart rarely attains Haydn’s level until the last six,

Nonsense! No. 74 is one of his top 10 greatest symphonies.
Haydn 77 is a very fine symphony in every respect, but just to put it into context, written in 1782, it is contemporaneous with Mozart 35 - the first of Mozart’s last six, and by some distance greatest of his symphonies which were all written after his move to Vienna the year before.

those poor bassoons in the last movement
