Haydn Symphony No.

104 (detailed set work for AoS A)

Haydn Biography
Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) was born into a musical family in Vienna. From 1761 he
worked as a musician for the wealthy Esterhàzy family, becoming Kappelmeister for
Prince Nikolaus I in 1766. This was a prestigious job, with operas, concerts and
rehearsals taking place every week, but Haydn was nevertheless essentially a servant,
wearing the same livery as other domestic staff. The family built a new palace -
Esterhàza - in the Hungarian countryside, which had extraordinary facilities for music
making but was also quite remote, leaving Haydn rather isolated both personally (he
was trapped in a loveless marriage) and professionally. His role at the court gave him
the opportunity to compose and perform a large number of works in an environment that
was open to new musical innovations.
The prince was a musical connoisseur and Haydn was kept very busy catering to his
changing enthusiasms. The prince initially learnt the baryton (like a bass viol but with
extra plucked strings) and Haydn was asked to write over 200 works for this instrument.
From the mid 1770s, however, the prince became more interested in opera and Haydn
was expected both to direct several productions a year and to write new works. At the
end of this decade Haydn was given a new contract that gave him more creative
freedom and he chose to concentrate on instrumental music, particularly chamber music
and symphonies.
Prince Nikolaus died in 1790 and his successor (Prince Anton) was far less interested in
music. Although Haydn remained nominally an employee of the court (as well as
receiving pension granted to him by Prince Nikolaus), he was free to pursue other
projects, including some extended visits to London to write and conduct new
symphonies Haydn’s concerts in London were very successful and it was for one of
these occasions that Symphony 104 (his last) was written.
Haydn’s two extended visits to London were organized by the musician and concert
producer Salomon and seeing in person the enthusiasm with which his work was received
by audiences in the city seems to have stimulated Haydn to ever increasing boldness and
innovation. The two trips were also extremely lucrative, earning him the equivalent of more
than twenty years Esterhàzy salary. The following extract from a letter gives a sense of
Haydn’s celebrity status in London: ‘My arrival caused a great sensation … I went the
rounds of all the newspapers for three successive days. Everyone wants to know me … If
I wanted I could dine out every day, but first I must consider my health and second my
work.’ Symphonies 93-98 were written during Haydn’s first visit to London and 99-104
during his second visit.
In 1795 Prince Anton died and the last part of Haydn’s career was spent back at the
Esterhàzy working part time for Prince Nikolaus II, who rebuilt the musical establishment
at the court. These years were dominated by choral works and string quartets and,
before ill health struck, Haydn enjoyed the status of an internationally renowned
composer working in Vienna.
Haydn’s music was famous all over Europe and he was a strong influence on later
composers, including Mozart (for whom he was a mentor and friend), Beethoven (who
he briefly taught), Schubert, Mendelssohn and Brahms. He is often credited as the
‘father’ of the both the symphony and the string quartet – although he invented neither of
these genres, he made a very substantial contribution to their development.

Symphony 104 and the Classical Style
The Classical era saw the continued rise of instrumental music both chamber (for
example the sonata and string quartet) and orchestral, with the symphony taking pride of
place in this development. Symphony 104 is typical of later Classical instrumental works
in that it is written not just for a court or by aristocratic commission, but for an
enthusiastic concert-going public.
Symphony 104 is written for a full Classical orchestra with double woodwind (including
clarinets) plus two each of horns and trumpets. The full sonorities available from this
expanded ensemble makes the ‘filling in’ role of the harpsichord pretty much redundant.
Classical chamber music tends to be more intimate and private whereas symphonies are
a grander public musical statement. Nevertheless both genres are underpinned by the
aesthetic of the style galante, which replaces the grandeur and seriousness of much of
Baroque music with a lighter and more graceful touch. The grand D minor opening of the
London symphony thus quickly gives way to the light-hearted elegance of the first
subject (bar 17). The accessibility of the style, however, does not prevent this music
being highly sophisticated.
The simple periodic phrasing of this and all the other principal themes in this
symphony underpin the complexities and irregularities that Haydn later introduces. The
tendency towards balanced phrases punctuated with clear cadences is another
important hallmark of the Classical style.
The clear harmony, dominated by primary chords and cadential progressions help to
establish keys quickly (e.g. the opening of the Andante) and allow some quite complex
and rapid modulations in developmental and transition sections (e.g. the passage from
bar 98 in the Andante).
These melodic ideas are generally presented with clear, relatively simple textures
(melody dominated homophony), but Haydn does not hesitate to liven things up with
countermelodies (first subject of last movement) and occasional imitation (the beginning
of the development in the last movement).
The four-movement overall structure is standard for the Classical symphony. As the
symphony developed composers made increasing effort to mould the four movements
into a unified whole, with motivic and other links (in 104 the use of silences is one
example). Earlier Classical composers (including Haydn) tended to write relatively
lightweight last movements but Symphony 104 has a more substantial finale with
weighty musical arguments (e.g. the use of interrupted cadences as a structural device)
and this became typical of composers in the later Classical and Romantic periods.
Sonata form is the most important structure in the Classical era. Haydn makes use of it
in both first and last movements of symphony 104, but in both cases he uses the same
melodic idea for both first and second themes (a device called monothematicism). This
underlines the central importance of the tonal structure in sonata form – the opposition
of two keys (tonic and dominant) in the exposition, the modulations and contrasts in the
development and the resolution of all the tonal tension onto the tonic in the
recapitulation.
The overall style was varied and flexible with contrasts such as elegant first subject at
bar 17 in the first movements that moves straight into the noisy jubilance of the tonic
material at bar 32. Similarly the simple folky melody in the last movement (S1 & S2a)
makes a strong contrast with the lyrical and more harmonically complex S2b at b. 84.

Brief movement overviews
I: After an imposing Adagio D minor opening, the Allegro starts with a genial first subject in D
major. It quickly becomes more energetic before the transition into the A major second
subject, which is based on the same theme (the movement is monothematic). After the
modulatory development the recapitulation is strangely hesitant, with a very unusual pause
after the dominant preparation at the end of the development and before the first subject.
Even stranger is the way the music that replaces the transition peters out into silence before
the second subject begins with a question and answer version of the first bar that feels like it
is being wound back up into action.

II: The second movement is in ternary form with elements of variation. The opening section
extends the initial 8 bar theme relatively conventionally but the middle section of the
movement starts like a minor key variation before exploding in a dramatic sturm und drang
style episode. This suddenly breaks off and there is a bar of silence (compare with the
silences in the recap of the first movement) and the music turns instead to further
development of the main material in Bb major. For the final section Haydn revisits the
opening ideas but adds various embellishments. In the first section there was a heavily
emphasized pause on chord IV and Haydn returns twice to this idea in the final section with
ever more embellishment and emphasis.

III: The Menuetto in D major uses related motivic material, ending the A section with a
distinctive whole-bar trill. The B section develops same motifs and adds a hemiola rhythmic
idea. The repeat of the A section leads to a codetta that starts extending the cadence only to
stop for two whole bars of silence after an anacrusis – the most dramatic silence so far in the
work. It is ended by an extended trill and some cadences. The Trio is in Bb major – an
unusual key relationship that necessitates a linking section at the end to take us back to the
Menuetto reprise. There is a less dramatic silence at the same structural point, and like in
the Menuetto it involves interrupting a hint at the subdominant.

IV: The Last movement is based on a folk-like melody over a drone which is developed into
monothematic sonata form like first. A countermelody present in both subjects is much more
prominent in the second subject and there is a further minim idea (S2b) that provides
contrast and is always introduced via an interrupted cadence. The development addresses
all the material and makes an unusual approach to the recapitulation via an interrupted
cadence in F# minor (before S2b is developed there is an interrupted cadence made more
prominent by a whole bar of silence).

Haydn 104 Topic Notes
A) Development of overall form
 Follows the traditional pattern of four movements with a slow second, a minuet third
movement and finishing off with a lively finale.
 The second movement is conventional in that it is Andante and in the subdominant.
However the form is more unusual, with elements of variation within an overall
ternary form. The third movement is a traditional minuet and trio. but with an unusual
key relationship between the two sections (D major / Bb major) and a linking section
from the end of the trio to the reprise of the minuet (see notes on inner movements)
 It is worth noting that although the last movement begins with a simple folk melody,
the music is actually complex and sophisticated (see notes on finale below).
 Haydn creates motivic links between the movements, most obviously between the
main melodies of the first and second movements but there are also more subtle
connections.

B) Development of first movement (and sonata form)


 First (and last) movement is in clear sonata form with exposition (bar 17),
development (bar 124) and recapitulation (bar 193).
 First (and last) movement is monothematic (uses the same theme for both first and
second subjects) – this is quite common in Haydn’s work although more unusual in
the music of other composers. The exposition second subject (bar 65) is
nevertheless in the dominant key (A major) as expected.
 Starting the first movement with a slow introduction was a practice established (but
not invented) by Haydn. In this case it is in the tonic (D) minor.
 The recapitulation in the first movement is strangely hesitant, with an unusual pause
after the dominant preparation at the end of the development (bar 192) and before
the first subject. Even stranger is the way the music that replaces the transition
peters out into silence in bar 242 before the second subject begins with a question
and answer version of the first bar that feels like it is being wound back up into
action.
C) Development of second/slow movements
 Marked Andante, which is a very common tempo for a second movement. The use of
the more relaxed subdominant key (G major) is also typical.
 In ternary form but with elements of variation, particularly in the A section reprise,
which sees considerable melodic embellishment, including dotted rhythms (e.g. bar
82) and sextuplets (e.g. bar 98).
 The B section (bar 38) starts as if it is a minor-key variation of the opening but this is
interrupted by a dramatic sturm und drang style episode. This itself breaks off in bar
56 and there is a bar of silence (compare with the silences in the recap of the first
movement) and the music turns instead to further development of the main material
in Bb major.
 In the first section there is a heavily emphasized pause on chord IV (C) in bar 25 and
Haydn returns twice to this idea in the final section with ever more embellishment and
emphasis. In bar 105, Haydn turns to in C minor rather than major and then, through
a bold series of pivot modulations, ends up in F# major in bar 116 before working his
way back to G.

P a g e | 25
D) Development of minuet/third movements
 The third movement is a traditional minuet rather than a Scherzo but it is marked
Allegro and the off-beat accents in the opening phrase plus the hemiola in the B
section (bars 20-22) give it an energetic and robust feel
 The lack of modulation in the first half of the Menuet (still in the tonic of D major in
bar 16) is balanced by a Scherzo that moves to the rather unusual key of Bb. Haydn
plays with our expectations by beginning this section (bar 53) with a melodic idea that
could equally be in D minor.
 Also playful is the end of the Menuet, in which Haydn seems to begin a modulation to
the subdominant in bar 43 only to grind to a surprising halt that leaves the upbeat at
the end of bar 44 hanging in mid-air for two whole bars of rest. This is resolved by an
extended version of the trill figure from bar 7 that leads into a perfect cadence. The
same trick is repeated more subtly in the trio, which also hints at the subdominant in
bar 86 only to peter out into silence before cadencing.
 The unusual key of Bb for the trio necessitates the composition of a special link in bar
95 to modulate back to the D major of the Menuet. A rising chromatic line leads to a
Bb augmented sixth chord in bar 99 that resolves to the dominant of D.

E) Development of finale / last movements


 The finale starts with a very rustic, folky feel, including a tonic drone and a melody
clearly based on a specific folk song (Oj Jelena from Croatia)
 Despite this simple start, the finale is quite complex and weighty. Whereas in earlier
works, the finale is usually quite lightweight, it is typical of later Haydn and Mozart
symphonies (and even more so in Beethoven and later Romantic composers) for the
it to be more substantial
 Although this movement is, like the first, monothematic, there is an important and
prominent countermelody in bar 11 in the second violin. The falling fifth idea first
heard in bar 13 is developed extensively, including being played in contrary motion
with its inversion in bar 73.
 There is also a further second subject idea (S2b in bar 84) that provides contrast and
is always introduced via an interrupted cadence. The development takes this idea
and makes a very unusual approach to the recapitulation via an interrupted cadence
in F# minor (bars 192-3).

F) Development of the orchestra


 Haydn uses a standard mature Classical orchestra (strings, double woodwind, horns
and trumpets) and often they fulfil fairly traditional roles, as at the beginning of the
Menuet where the flutes and oboes double the violins whilst the horns, trumpets (and
clarinets) fill in the harmony.
 However, Haydn also uses varied doublings for different colours as in the trio where
the violin is first doubled by oboe (bar 53) and then in the next phrase on bassoon
(bar 59).
 A more complex example is the end of the second movement (from bar 141), where
the material passes seamlessly amongst the instruments constantly changing both
the colour and the prominence of different lines, ending with unusual use of the horns
to play a quiet and writing at the very end.
 In later music, valved horns and trumpets can play any notes, but here Haydn is
writing for natural brass, so his D horns and trumpets play at the opening but fall
silent at bar 7 where the F major tonality is too awkward for them.

P a g e | 26
G) Development of harmony and tonality
 Although the basic tonic/dominant structural relationships and use of closely related
keys are strongly present there are some pretty unusual features in this piece as
well.
 The tonal relationship between the Menuet in D major to the trio in Bb major (bar 53)
is unexpected, and makes necessary a short linking passage back to the reprise
(from bar 95) that uses a Bb augmented sixth chord (bar 99) to lead to the A
dominant that prepares the return of D
 There is a rapid shift to the very distant key of F# major in bars 116-17 in the G major
second movement. Haydn achieves this modulation through a series of pivot note
modulations and enharmonic shifts such as the Db major in bar 113 to C# minor in
bar 114.
 The last movement sees a very interesting and unusual approach for the return of D
major in bar 193 (the recapitulation). An interrupted cadence in F# minor (bars 192-3)
replaces the expected dominant preparation.

H) Development of drama, narrative and programme


 This symphony is not telling a specific story like some later Romantic works but it
nevertheless has dramatic elements and presents at least a musical narrative. The
fanfare-like introduction provides a dramatic opening to the piece – the minor-key
seriousness is soon dispelled once the main Allegro starts, however.
 Haydn’s use of silence creates drama and tension and becomes an important feature of
this symphony. The most light-hearted use of silence is the two-bar rest in the Menuet
(bars 45-6) where Haydn suddenly interrupts the flow of the music before landing on a
two-bar trill idea.
 More dramatic in the story-telling (narrative) sense is the way in which the transition in
the recapitulation peters out at bar 242 almost as if Haydn does not want to arrive at the
reprise of the second subject (or is it the music or the theme itself that is reluctant?)
 Tonal and harmonic surprises are also important in a musical narrative and in the last
movment there is a very surprising moment (for those with a good ear and good
understanding at least) wen the return of D major in the recapitulation (bar 193) is
approached via an interrupted cadence in F# minor (bars 192-3) rather than from
dominant (i.e. A)

I) Development of melody and theme


 Haydn’s melodies tend to be presented in short, regular phrases, influenced by folk
melody. The main melody from the last movement is a good example of this – it bears a
strong resemblance in fact to the Croation folk song ‘Oj Jelena’.
 In both the first and last movements, Haydn’s sonata form is monothematic, meaning he
uses the same melodic material for both first and second subjects, a regular feature of
his writing.
 Haydn relentlessly develops and reuses motivic fragments. One example of this is the
countermelody in the last movement. Bar 13 introduces a descending fifth idea that
becomes the basis for a whole section of the second subject starting in bar 98 where is
appears first as in the original then in inversion and then in bar 73 with both at the same
time in contrary motion.
 There are also many motivic connection between movements such as the very strong
resemblance of the first subject in the opening movement (bar 17) and the opening of the
Andante. The scalic fifth idea mentioned above in connection with the last movement can
also be heard in inversion in the first in bar 51.

P a g e | 27
J) Development of texture
 As is typical of the mature Classical period, the main texture is melody-dominated
homophony. The opening of the second movement is a nice clear example, but even
here it is more sophisticated than it initially seems. In bar 9 the B section material in
the first violins is accompanied by snippets of the A section material, first in the cellos
then in the violas.
 Haydn constantly varies the types of textures and timbres, for example in the last
movement where a very delicate and minimal string texture at 65 gets a change of
colour in bar 69 with the addition of bassoon doubling the melody as well as basses
and cellos before giving way to an energetic tutti texture with contrary motion quavers
at bar 73.
 Counterpoint is vital in Haydn’s works from the simple alternations between
woodwind and lower string in in bars 115-20 to the more complex imitative texture at
the end of the development in the last movement starting at bar 167.
 One of the ways Haydn varies the texture in repetitions of the main A section idea of
the Menuet is to present the theme in a heterophonic texture. The best example
starts in bar 35 where the oboes and clarinets play a simplified version of the opening
idea at the same time as a decorated version in the strings.

K) Development of tempo, metre and rhythm


 One notable rhythmic feature is Haydn’s use of silence. A striking example is in the
Menuet, where Haydn inserts a two-bar rest in all parts in bars 35-36.
 Also in the Menuet, Haydn enlivens the 3/4 dance with accents on the third beat
(starting in bar 1) and a hemiola in bar 21-2.
 Dance rhythms also surface in the last movement, which closely resembles a
Croatian folk song. The repeated crotchets at the beginning of bar 13 are turned into
a vigorous stamping figure starting in bar 19.
 Later in the Finale, however, the level of rhythmic activity suddenly decreases and
the nearly continuous quavers in the first part of the second subject give way to a
much more gentle idea in which no rhythms are faster than a minim from bar 84
through to 96.

L) Dance and national styles


 Haydn’s melodies tend to be presented in short, regular phrases, influenced by folk
melody. The opening Allegro idea from the first movement is a good example, with its
relatively simple textures and hamonies alongside the periodic phrasing.
 The main melody from the last movement is even more strongly folk inspired and
bears a strong resemblance in fact to the Croatian folk song ‘Oj Jelena’.
 The last movement also starts with a long tonic drone – a common feature of folk
music that was also used in Baroque depictions of folk styles
 As is common in most Classical symphonies, the third movement provides relatively
light relief in the form of the traditional minuet dance, although the offbeat accents
and hemiolas disrupt the flow a little.
