Genius Music Friends Episode XXI

It wasn’t just Mozart who wrote music for a Tischflötenuhr (pictured), Haydn did so too. In a piece which he later used in his Symphony No. 101, nicknamed the ‘The Clock’. The Tischflötenuhr in question is now part of the permanent collection of the Speelklok Museum in Utrecht. In this episode you’ll hear a recording of Haydn himself.

During his last living year, 1791, Mozart wrote a lot of music for unusual instruments and combinations. For example, an aria for vocal bass with an exceptionally virtuous obligatory part for contra bass. Unheard of at the time. You’ll also hear three pieces by Mozart, performed by forgotten pianist Walter Klien. These pieces are playful variations on a big hit number and two sublime expressions of tranquil melancholy.
