Description:

Written in 1783, Joseph Haydn’s (1732-1809) CONCERTO FOR CELLO No. 2 in D, Op. 101 (Hob.VIIb:2) was thought to be written for and premiered by Antonín Kraft, a cellist of Prince Nikolaus’s Esterházy Orchestra. It was even suggested that Kraft had composed the work himself, though a 1951 discovery of Haydn’s autograph score has put the theory to rest. Original advertisements for the work named James Cervetto as the soloist for the premier on March 14, 1784 in Hannover Square, London. This concerto is considered to be one of the greatest works for cello of the classical era. Instrumentation: 0.2.0.0: 2.0.0.0: Str (4.4.3.3.3 in set): Solo Vc in Set. This reprint edition has been edited by Kurt Soldan.
