Joseph Haydn – Father of the Symphony

Haydn shaped the forms of the symphony and string quartet, setting the stage for Mozart and Beethoven. Working under patronage, he balanced invention with accessibility, creating music that blended wit, elegance, and structure. His symphonies brought order and delight to Europe’s concert halls.
