View full profile →

Joseph Haydn (1732–1809) was an Austrian composer of the Classical period, often called the 'Father of the Symphony' and 'Father of the String Quartet.' He spent most of his career as a court musician for the wealthy Esterházy family, where he developed his craft in relative isolation, later achieving international fame with his London symphonies and oratorios.
