Cello Concerto No. 2 in D major , Hob.VIIb:2
by Joseph Haydn
Cello Classical Concerto ~25 min advanced
Composed around 1783, this concerto is one of the most frequently performed works for cello and orchestra. The singing Adagio is a masterpiece of Classical lyricism, and the Rondo finale brims with Haydnesque wit and energy. The concerto has been recorded by virtually every major cellist of the modern era.
