Joseph Haydn's Symphony No. 1 in D major, Hoboken I/1, was written in 1759 in Dolní Lukavice, while in the service of Count Morzin.〔H. C. Robbins Landon, ''The Symphonies of Joseph Haydn''. London: Universal Edition & Rockliff (1955): 615〕 Though identified by Haydn as his first symphony, scholars are not sure if it is actually the first he composed, or even the first that survived to posterity.〔Antony Hodgson, ''The Music of Joseph Haydn: The Symphonies''. London: The Tantivy Press (1976): 46. "Scholarly research cannot tell which was the very first symphony penned by Joseph Haydn ... To remain perplexed about this small but interesting point would be to ignore no less than the composer himself."〕 While it is reliably known that No. 1 was written in 1759, H. C. Robbins Landon cannot rule out that No. 2,〔Landon (1955): 616. "''c''. 1757-61 (?)"〕No. 4,〔Landon (1955): 620. "''c''. 1757-61 (?)"〕 or both could have been composed in 1757 or 1758. Symphony No. 1 is scored for 2 oboes (or possibly flute), bassoon, 2 horns, strings and continuo.〔Landon, (1955): 615. "2 ob. (or fl. ?), 2 cor., str., (fag., cemb. )"〕 Like many of the earliest symphonies by Haydn and his contemporaries, it is in three movements: #Presto, 4/4 #Andante in G major, 2/4 #Presto, 3/8 The first movement opens with a Mannheim crescendo which is in contrast to the rest of the symphony, which is more Austrian in character.〔HC Robbins Landon, Haydn: Chronicle and Works, 5 vols, (Bloomington and London: Indiana University Press, 1976-) v. 1, Haydn: the Early Years, 1732-1765〕 The first movement has "frequent passages where" the violas are "used with some ingenuity and quite separately from the bass line."〔(Landon, 1955): 203〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Symphony No. 1 (Haydn)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
