The book provides a comprehensive overview of Haydn's life, from his childhood in Rohrau, Austria, to his rise to fame as a composer and conductor in Vienna. The author explores Haydn's personal life, including his marriage and relationships with friends and colleagues, as well as his musical career and the development of his unique style. Hadden also delves into the cultural and historical context of Haydn's time, providing insight into the political and social events that shaped his life and work. The book includes numerous illustrations and musical examples, as well as a bibliography and index for further research. Overall, Haydn by J. Cuthbert Hadden is an engaging and informative biography that offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and work of one of the most important composers in history.A more interesting meeting took place at Bonn. Beethoven, then a young man of twenty-two, was still living with his people in the Wenzegasse, but already arrangements had been made by the Elector for his paying a somewhat lengthened visit to Vienna in order to prosecute his studies there. Since the death of Mozart, Haydn had become the most brilliant star in the musical firmament, and it was only natural that the rising genius should look to him for practical help and encouragement. It so happened that the Elector's Band, of which Beethoven was a member, gave a dinner to Haydn at Godesberg.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
