This historical picture book is based on the true story behind the composition of
Haydn's Symphony No. 45 in F-sharp minor, otherwise known as the Farewell
Symphony. Forbidden from seeing their families while serving their employer
Prince Nicholas at his summer palace in the Hungarian countryside, Franz Joseph
Haydn and the
other musicians in the prince's employ devise a clever scheme to make their
feelings known. This colorfully illustrated book provides both a look at life in an
eighteenth-century court and an engaging example of how emotions can be
expressed through music. Book, 32 pages.
