EPISODE 5 - Australian Haydn Ensemble's Pre-concert podcast - Haydn's Times of Day
Haydn is one of the most influential composers to come out of the 18th century who started from humble beginnings. In the lead-up to the Australian Haydn Ensemble’s December 2023 concert tour, Artistic Director Skye McIntosh takes a look at Haydn’s early career when he took up his position with the Esterhàzy’s and some of the stunning music he composed at that time.

EPISODE 2: Australian Haydn Ensemble's pre-concert podcast: The Mozarts, The Haydns & The Bear
The Mozart family is probably the best-known musical family of the 18th century next to that of the Bachs, but there were others that were connected to them and each other - including The Haydn brothers - Joseph and Michael - and also an important influencer of the young Mozart, Johann Christian Bach. In the lead-up to the Australian Haydn Ensemble’s April 2023 concert tour and performance at the Canberra International Festival, The Mozarts, The Haydns & The Bear, Artistic Director Skye McIntosh takes a look at these musical families and connections.
