About the Music
Cellist Yo-Yo Ma is soloist in Haydn’s Cello Concerto in C, joining Dutch early-music conductor Ton Koopman in this program of 18th- and early 19th-century works. Haydn’s Symphony No. 98 is one of the twelve symphonic masterpieces he wrote for adoring London audiences during two visits there in the first half of the 1790s. C.P.E. Bach, one of the most accomplished sons of J.S. Bach, was along with Haydn one of the originators of the genre of the symphony. Schubert’s haunting Unfinished Symphony, begun about 1822, was abandoned by the composer after two movements were completed.
