For well over two hundred years, Joseph Haydn has been by turns
lionized and misrepresented - held up as celebrity, and disparaged
as mere forerunner or point of comparison. And yet, unlike many
other canonic composers, his music has remained a fixture in the
repertoire from his day until ours. What do we need to know now in
order to understand Haydn and his music? With over eighty entries
focused on ideas and seven longer thematic essays to bring these
together, this distinctive and richly illustrated encyclopedia
offers a new perspective on Haydn and the many cultural contexts in
which he worked and left his indelible mark during the
Enlightenment and beyond. Contributions from sixty-seven scholars
and performers in Europe, the Americas, and Oceania, capture the
vitality of Haydn studies today - its variety of perspectives and
methods - and ultimately inspire further exploration of one of
western music's most innovative and influential composers.
