Haydn’s rarely heardNotturno in C majorand his popular“Clock” Symphony, as well as Mozart’sHorn Concerto No. 4 in E-flat, represent the greats of Viennese classicism at the second evening of the Ferencsik season ticket. The composer of theOverture in B-flat major that opens the concert, Hummel, was eight years younger than Beethoven and took lessons from both Mozart and Haydn. The most noteworthy piece on the concert programme is theSymphony No. 5 in D majorby the Brit William Boyce, who, as a contemporary of the forerunner to Classicism Philipp Emanuel Bach, was not only born long before Mozart, but also prior to Haydn, in 1711. Conducting the Hungarian National Philharmonic will be the Dutch-Australian Benjamin Bayl, who is an expert in historical performance, while theHorn Concertowill be performed by László Gál Jr.
It is popularly believed that Beethoven was the only composer struck down by hearing loss, and who continued to write music despite his tragic affliction. In truth, the Czech Smetana, the French Fauré and the British Vaughan Williams all shared the fate of the composer of Fidelio. Another composer who carried on writing music despite going deaf was the British William Boyce, a contemporary of Philipp Emanuel Bach whose Symphony No. 5. in D major is the rare treat of the second concert of the Ferencsik season ticket. Conducted by the Dutch-Australian Benjamin Bayl, who has vast experience of historical performance, the Hungarian National Philharmonic Orchestra will play two Haydn works on this evening: the Notturno in C major is a rarely heard work, while Symphony No. 101 in D Major (“The Clock”) is one of the composer’s most popular pieces. Mozart’s Horn Concerto No. 4 in E-flat major will be performed by László Gál Jr, while the programme that blends the known and unknown in good measure will be introduced by the Overture in B-flat major by Johann Nepomuk Hummel, a student of Mozart and Haydn.
