Thus did the Horn live in glory and respect for ages.
But then came Sousa.
The second movement is amazing!
Genial with a lot of creativity, especially the 4-th movement! The andante tempo is very unusual in the last movements, although there is a powerful presto in the end. Like a confirmacy as "I am a 4-th movement by the way. "😀
What a great symphony!!!
Most Haydn symphonies are great including this one. Not sure about the Hogwood approach here though. OIt sounds better in Dorati's slightly slower version.
and what a great 4th mov
All of this symphony is good but the opening movement with the horns is truly remarkable and catchy beyond reason.
Today I listened to this magnificent symphony for the first time, and it was well worth the effort! It's not as brilliant and spectacular as some of the contemporaneous nicknamed symphonies like the "Fire" or "La Chasse," but what it lacks in pizazz it more that makes up for in lyricism and dignified demeanor.
In the finale there is solo passage for double bass as in 31 (Horn Signal). My 2nd favorite composer, next Bach.
Remember that G# was H in Germany, I can categorize the 3 B"s as Bach, Haydn and Beethoven.
Fantastisch!!!
One of two symphonies by Haydn using four horns (the other being No. 31).
Thank you for that information. I know that Mozart used four horns in his Symphony 25 in G Minor.
HC Robbins Landon argued that this symphony is a precursor to the 'Horn Signal'. It's hard to argue with that after hearing both, but he didn't like this one. I think he was crazy, it's amazing like most Haydn works.

Just to be accurate, there are *four* 4-horn symphonies, though they are used differently from the very badly mis-numbered 72 (1763) and 31 (1765), where in both cases they have virtuoso solo horn parts, fanfares, and a number of common features.
72 is in effect a trial run for 31, or if you like, they are sisters.
Haydn’s symphonies with 4 horns are:
Symphony 13 (1763))
Symphony 72 (1763)
Symphony 31(1765)
Symphony 39 (1767)
N 13 y 39 also use four horns
Thanks for uploading!
The lips of that horn player in the first movement must have needed to be a lot more more rubbery to execute the trills more neatly. He struggles to fit in all the notes, and probably wished he had a lot more milliseconds to execute them.
Great horn parts! (though quasi impossible to play without gobbling)
Absolutely! Only symphony no. 51 is even harder to play

Symphony 72 is badly misnumbered: written in 1763 it is in effect the practice run with four solo horn parts, opening and closing fanfares and a final variation movement, for the better known Symphony 31 (‘Hornsignal’) written in 1765.
You’re quite right about the double horn concerto second movement of Symphony 51 (c.1771 - 73) being extremely challenging, but Symphony 31 is overall a greater work than Symphony 72, though technically, much of the soloistic horn music Haydn was writing at the time was extremely challenging.
The slightly later Divertimenti a otto voci* (1775) also contain some fiendishly difficult horn parts.
* Unfortunately the correct name is now often reduced to a mere footnote; these magnificent works are now better known - due to the publisher Henle Verlag’s unilateral and un-international decision to Germanify and re-name Haydn’s original title - as the Baryton Octets.
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
dat sound... 00:24 :-)

1763 -1765 circa Alla grazia sostanziosa ma un poco insincera della sinfonia precedente (n.31) si contrappone la disadorna semplicità di questa sinfonia della Caccia. Le analogie formali tra le due opere sono talmente evidenti (lo stesso strumentale con quattro corni e un flauto, lo stesso carattere concertante e infine lo stesso tipo di finale) da rendere inspiegabile un posto così avanzato nella lista di Mandyczewski. A parere di Robbins Landon essa sarebbe stata composta prima della sinfonia n.31, di cui costituirebbe quasi uno studio preliminare. Ma rivela bellezze sconosciute al "Segnale di corno" e merita almeno altrettanta attenzione. LDC
