| Description: | Just a few years after Haydn wrote his twelve "London" symphonies, Johann Peter Salomon (1745-1815) published the first arrangements of these works for flute and string quartet, with an optional piano part. The many reprints of these arrangements throughout Europe attest to their extraordinary success during the 19th century. Now, drawing on Salomon’s original manuscript, Christopher Hogwood has presented a new critical edition of the arrangement of the "Surprise" Symphony, forming a welcome addition to the chamber music repertoire. Similar arrangements also exist for the "London" and "Clock" symphonies. |
