Haydn and the Enlightenment

- The Late Symphonies and their Audience

About Haydn and the Enlightenment

Schroeder here sets out to challenge the widely held view of Haydn as an inspired instrumental musician who composed in isolation from 18th-century enlightened thinking. By means of both documentary and musical investigation the author seeks instead to present him as a culturally and politically sensitive representative of the Age of Enlightenment.
