symphony number 94
Throughout this paper I will be analyzing the “Symphony No. 94 in G Major” composed by one of the best composers of the classical period joseph haydn. i watched the event on youtube.com, this musical event took place in copley symphony hall on june 5 2011. the copley music hall was established in 1929 but at that it was called the “fox theatre movie palace, but later on it became under the property of the san diego symphony, this acquisition took place in 1984, they renovated the hall dramatically adding a lot of technologies. the name of the orchestra that performed in this event is San Diego Civic Youth Orchestra. this civic youth orchestra foundation started in 1955, and since then it has enriched the lives of young musicians all over Southern California, they are group of young men and women whose age does not exceed 22.

The conductor of this musical event is called Warren Gref. he practices many music relatated activities including playing the horn, conducting many symphonies in many different events and with many different orchestras. he is also an associate faculty member at the University of California at San Diego. what caught my eye immediately when watching this video is the size of the hall and the organization within it. the conductor whore a black tuxedo and looked very formal, in addition, the orchestra were wearing all tuxedos and looked formal as well. this could be due to the fact that they are all still very young musicians and have a lot of chance to improve their skills. this is what made me come to the conclusion that they might be not be perfect in playing all the notes in correctly and in the correct form but they are hard workers and have great potential.

Joseph haydn was an Austrian born composer who spent his life as a court musician , although many people thought that he was secluded form the musical world he is still known as one of the greatest composers of his era. through research i have found many interesting facts about

    Haydn was a remarkable composer, epitomizing the meaning of classical period composition, and though he wasn't as flashy as the younger Mozart, his music always stayed true to form. Haydn, unlike most composers, had a "reliable and steady" job composing, directing, teaching, performing, and managing musicians from the royal Esterhazy family. During this time, Haydn composed many pieces of music for the courtly orchestra to perform. With a staggering body of work, including over 100 symphonies and 60 string quartets, he is often referred to as the "Father of the Symphony" or "Father of the String Quartet."…

    Joseph Franz Haydn was an amazing man. He was a very ambitious, hard working, a never give up type of guy. From what Louis Nohl said, Haydn started singing by age six and he was part of church choir. With all the fame and greatness, he would still achieve success coming from a poor family living in a peasant cottage. What really grabbed my attention was how Haydn loved practicing music and though with his many struggles Haydn always kept positive and a strong attitude. He would go against his family’s wishes along with starving himself throughout his youth to be part of music. Haydn taught me that do what you love to do and you will be great at doing what you love.…
