Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Haydn's Creation is one of the great masterpieces of the classical period.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Franz Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) has been called the father of the symphony and the string quartet. A friend of Mozart and a teacher of Beethoven, "Papa" Haydn composed an amazing variety of music -- symphonies, string quartets, concerti, masses, operas, oratorios, keyboard works -- and his prolific output celebrates both the heights and depths of life. In this fascinating book Calvin Stapert combines his skills as a biographer and a musicologist to recount Haydn's steady rise from humble origins to true musical greatness. Unlike other biographers, Stapert argues that Haydn's work was a product of his devout Catholic faith, even though he worked mainly as a court musician and the bulk of his output was in popular genres. In addition to telling Haydn's life story, Stapert includes accessible listening guides to The Creation and portions of other well-known works to help Haydn listeners more fully appreciate the brilliance behind his music.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. When his newly hired violinist disappears just weeks before the Empress's visit, Haydn is forced to confront a disturbing truth. . . Kapellmeister Joseph Haydn would like nothing better than to show his principal violinist, Bart Daboczi, the door. But with the Empress Maria Theresa's visit scheduled in three weeks, Haydn can ill-afford to lose his surly virtuoso. But when Bart disappears-along with all the music composed for the imperial visit-the Kapellmeister is forced to don the role of Kapell-detective, or risk losing his job. Before long Haydn's search uncovers pieces of a disturbing puzzle. Bart , it appears, is more than just a petty thief-and more dangerous.
