Symphony No. 34 (Michael Haydn)

Symphony No. 34 (Michael Haydn)

Michael Haydn's Symphony No. 34 in E-flat major, Perger 26, Sherman 34, MH 473, written in Salzburg in 1788, is the last E-flat major symphony he wrote, the first of his final set of six symphonies.

Scored for 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns and strings. In three movements:

# Allegro con brio
# Adagietto, in B-flat major
# Fugato. Allegro

The first and last movements begin the same way, only that the first movement uses the theme to launch a sonata form while the third movement uses it to preface a fugato.

Discography

Like the other symphonies of the 1788 set of six, this one is in the CPO disc with Johannes Goritzki conducting the New German Chamber Academy. It is also available on a Chandos disc of the London Mozart Players conducted by Matthias Bamert, which also includes Symphonies No.s 11, 16 and 25.
