Through fascinating storytelling and piano demonstrations, HPO Composer-in-Residence Abigail Richardson-Schulte shares captivating stories from the lives of Bach and Haydn and how their artistic contributions shaped music in society.
Johann Sebastian Bach and Joseph Haydn stand as pillars of their respective eras—Bach in the Baroque and Haydn in the Classical—and are inextricably linked through their contributions to music and the fascinating parallels in their careers.
She explores these towering figures of music history and celebrates HPO’s 140 years making music in Hamilton, which began in 1884 with a performance of Joseph Haydn’s Surprise Symphony.
