Here is the man who is now known as “Father of the Symphony” and “Father of the String Quartet”; who wrote the national anthem of Germany (which was also the Austrian national anthem from late 18th century until the end of World War II); who was once the idol of Beethoven, Brahms and many great composers who followed in his footsteps. But what actually brought Haydn to such status? Music Director Yip Wing-sie will share his success story with you.
