  • So I went away and reminded myself what Haydn's Piano sonata no.59 sounds like (Brautigam's recording) and oh yes it's good. I was struck especially by the silences at the beginning of the slow movement (now that's a sign of a great composer - when …
  • Very well said! I find myself agreeing with all your reasons - I suppose I veer a little more towards "contributed more pieces to the realm of truly great musical literature" as a deciding factor. But as I said, I know more Mozart than Haydn so ther…
