Divertimento in G major (Haydn)
The Divertimento in G major, Hob. XVI/8, L. 1, was written in 1766 by Joseph Haydn.
== History ==
The keyboard divertimento resembles the sonata,〔Wendy Thompson and Nicholas Temperley, "divertimento," ''The Oxford Companion to Music, Oxford Music Online'', Oxford University Press, accessed March 17, 2013, http://www.oxfordmusiconline.com/subscriber/article/opr/t114/e1990.〕 but its purpose was more for entertainment.〔Hubert Unverricht and Cliff Eisen, "Divertimento," ''Grove Music Online, Oxford Music Online'', Oxford University Press, accessed March 17, 2013, http://www.oxfordmusiconline.com/subscriber/article/grove/music/07864.〕 Haydn’s divertimentos tend to have three movements in a quick-slow-quick form, but the 18th century divertimento can have up to nine movements. The opening and closing allegro movements are usually in sonata form〔Thompson and Temperley. "divertimento," ''The Oxford Companion to Music''.〕 and are characteristically galant.〔Unverricht and Eisen, "Divertimento," ''Grove Music Online''.〕 Georg Feder groups this divertimento with nine others, calling them, “Nine small early sonatas.” Feder believes Haydn wrote them for his students or amateurs, as they are not technically challenging.〔Jane Bostian Price, "Authenticity, Chronology, Source Studies,” in ''Haydn studies'', ed. Jens Peter Larsen et al. (NY: Norton, 1981), 135.〕
In a letter from Haydn to the Prince Nikolaus Esterházy on December 6, 1766, Haydn references six new divertimenti that he had composed. This divertimento, seeing as it is classified by Landon as Divertimento No. 1, might be among the divertimenti that he is referencing:
:''“The most joyous Name Feast (which, Your Highness, with the grace of God, may spend in most complete fortune and felicity) obliged me most duly…to deliver to Him, in all humbleness, 6 new divertimenti…. Furthermore, I received the high order to have the divertimenti composed by me (twelve pieces in all) bound. but since Your Highness had returned to me some of them to be changed and I did not annotate those changes into my score, I ask you most obediently to let come to me the first 12 pieces only for the duration of three days, thereafter also the others, one by one, so that everything, including the changes, could be copied well and correctly, and bound.”''〔Tom Beghin, "Thoughts on performing Haydn’s keyboard sonatas,” in ''The Cambridge Companion to Haydn'', ed. Caryl Clark, (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2005), 214.〕
