||| FROM JEFFREY COHAN for SALISH SEA EARLY MUSIC FESTIVAL |||
Haydn Trios: The music (and magic) of Franz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) is to be celebrated in our fourth program of the 2024 Salish Sea Early Music Festival featuring late 18th-century trios by Haydn and his contemporaries and friends performed on period instruments.
As the most celebrated composer in all of Europe for much of his career, Franz Joseph Haydn was Mozart’s mentor and friend as well as Beethoven’s tutor. The program will include three trios for flute, violin and cello by Haydn, selections from a 1795 arrangement for these instruments of Mozart’s opera “The Magic Flute”, and a trio by Franz Anton Hoffmeister, a friend of Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven who published music by all three.
