Haydn had a nasal disease which prevented him from composing music at times. By the year 1802, this long term disease completely prevented him from composing altogether. Whether it was a direct cause of his death is uncertain, but it was no doubt a contributor to his demise and eventual death in 1809 at the age of 77.

What is the form of haydn symphony no 101 4th mvt?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

More commonly known as Haydn's Symphony # 100,it is the second movement that gives the symphony such appeal.It's
deceptively calm beginning, although the scoring is darkened by adding a pair of clarinets to the other movements' complement of strings and pairs of flutes, oboes, bassoons, trumpets and horns. Haydn then shatters the texture with a battery of "Turkish" percussion instruments, a novelty of the time already used literally by Mozart. The second movement is an arrangement and elaboration of a concerto for two lira organizata that Haydn had written in 1786 for the King of Naples.
