The presentation covers information about the work and life of the great composer F. I. Haydn. The purpose of this work is to tell schoolchildren the biography of a famous musician, to pay attention to the most famous works.
Franz Joseph Haydn is one of the famous Austrian musicians and a prominent representative of the Vienna Classical School. The composer is considered the founder of the symphony. He contributed in every possible way to the formation of string quartets. The slides show the house where he spent his childhood, there is a story about the family. Learn more about studying in Vienna. Here you will also find a characteristic of young years.
There was also a "difficult decade" in the life of the composer. At this time, I had to work hard and achieve something in order to have such wonderful fruits in the future. But difficulties always come to an end. That moment came when Franz was offered the post of conductor in a famous string orchestra. Surprising is the fact that Haydn's friend was Mozart himself. There are many photos in development that illustrate all the facts of life.
Austrian composer, representative of the Viennese classical school, one of the founders of such musical genres as the symphony and string quartet.
Christoph Willibald Gluck
Haydn's art is related in its style to Gluck's art, but the range of his images and concepts have their own characteristics. High tragedy, ancient stories that inspired Gluck are not his area. He is closer to the world of more ordinary images and feelings. The sublime beginning is not at all alien to Haydn, only he finds it not in the realm of tragedy. Serious reflection, poetic perception of life, the beauty of nature - all this becomes sublime in Haydn.
The next stage of Haydn's life is connected with the musical chapel at cathedral of st. Stephen in Vienna. Having received an invitation to become a chorister at the cathedral, the 8-year-old Haydn first came into contact with the rich artistic culture of the Austrian capital. The main musical wealth of Vienna is the most diverse folklore (the most important prerequisite for the formation of the classical school).
1749-1759 - the first years of independent life in Vienna
This 10th anniversary was the most difficult in Haydn's entire biography, especially at first. Without a roof over his head, without a penny in his pocket, he was extremely poor, wandering without a permanent shelter and doing odd jobs.
In 1759, on the recommendation of Furnberg, Haydn received his first permanent position - the position of bandmaster in the home orchestra of the Czech aristocrat, Count Morcin. For this orchestra was written Haydn's first symphony– D-dur in three parts. This was the beginning of the formation of the Viennese classical symphony. After 2 years, Mortsin, due to financial difficulties, dissolved the choir, and Haydn signed a contract with the richest Hungarian magnate, an ardent admirer of music - Paul Anton Esterhazy.
Late period of creativity .
In 1790, Prince Miklos Esterhazy died, bequeathing Haydn a lifetime pension. His heir dissolved the chapel, retaining the title of Kapellmeister for Haydn. Having completely freed himself from the service, the composer was able to fulfill his old dream - to travel outside of Austria. In the 1790s he made 2 tours trips to London at the invitation of the organizer of the "Subscription Concerts" violinist I. P. Salomon (1791-92, 1794-95). The 12 "London" symphonies written on this occasion completed the development of this genre in the work of Haydn, approved the maturity of the Viennese classical symphony (somewhat earlier, in the late 1780s, Mozart's last 3 symphonies appeared). The English public was enthusiastic about Haydn's music. At Oxford he was awarded an honorary doctorate in music.
Haydn passed away in the midst of the Napoleonic campaigns, when the French troops had already occupied the capital of Austria. During the siege of Vienna, Haydn consoled his loved ones: "Don't be afraid, children, where Haydn is, nothing bad can happen" .
