Course detail: Haydn and Mozart
Franz Joseph Haydn (1732 - 1809) and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 - 1791) are both major names in the classical music world. They were friends and colleagues, and their music bears stylistic similarities, but the circumstances of their lives were very different. Over three weeks, we'll get introduced to their lives, music and the culture in which they composed.
