Presto (second movement):

Finale:

    I’m guessing because of the lovely cor anglais work, no?

    This is a good performance, thanks for sharing. I never go and listen to Haydn on my own . . .

    You guess correctly!

    I played this once, quite some time ago. It’s really fun to play. I actually really enjoy playing Haydn for the most part, and he just doesn’t get played much around here.

    But then next week we Lord Nelson Mass, so there we go. 🙂
