Symphony No. 28 (Michael Haydn)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Michael Haydn's Symphony No. 28 in C major, Opus 1 No. 3, Perger 19, Sherman 28, MH 384, was written in Salzburg in 1784, was the third in the set of the only three symphonies of Haydn's published in his lifetime. The publisher, Artaria, also published several of Joseph Haydn's symphonies.
Scored for 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani and strings. In three movements:
- Allegro spiritoso
- Un poco adagio, in F major
- Fugato. Vivace assai
This is the first of Haydn's symphonies to conclude with the kind of fugato "that Haydn introduced in several of his late symphonies and which so clearly forecast Wolfgang Mozart's procedures in the "Jupiter" Symphony." (Sherman, 1988)
Charles Sherman based his 1988 edition of the score for Ludwig Doblinger on the Artaria edition but compared it with a Breitkopf & Hartel score of 1895 and manuscript parts from the Kroměríz castle in Moravia.
