Classical Music Trivia

Things you never knew about Joseph Haydn (1732-1809)

  • Born to a wheelwright (and occasional harpist) Mathias Haydn, the only artifact he retained all his life was a wheelmaker's hammer used by his father. He kept this in a specially made ornate box.

  • Haydn's nickname as a child was "Sepperl". Although his full name was Franz Joseph Haydn, he didn't use the name Franz, which is therefore omitted in most texts nowadays. He also never spelled his name Josef.

  • Haydn was a good friend of Mozart, in whose house the two musicians used to play in string quartets

    Last Post Answers: It has many parks and trees

    Glasgow has more parks and green areas than any other city in Europe. An aerial view shows this clearly. Glasgow Green in the East End covers an area of 129 acres and is owned by the people of Glasgow. It houses the People's Palace museum and the Winter Gardens where you can enjoy the plants while you have lunch.<-->
