Johann Michael Haydn
| 1737-1806Johann Michael Haydn worked at the renowned ecclesiastical princely court in Salzburg from 1763. Stylistically, he bridged the gap between the early classical period and the Biedermeier period during his 43 years there. In accordance with his official duties, Haydn contributed to practically all the genres cultivated in the Catholic liturgy: Haydn's church music is characterised by his knowledge of the liturgical function and the musical interpretation of religious texts. Johann Michael Haydn was initially regarded by his contemporaries as equal to Joseph Haydn. It was only the rapid rise of his elder brother to become the most important instrumental composer of the time that pushed Johann Michael Haydn into the shadows, from which the joy of musical discovery in recent years has increasingly brought him out.

Reviews
2006 ist - wir hatten es beinahe vergessen - auch Michael-Haydn-Jahr: Sein Todestag jährte sich am 10. August zum 200. Mal. Eine schöne Idee, zu diesem Anlass die früheste veröffentlichte Lebensbeschreibung des fürstbischöflichen „Hofmusicus und Concertmeisters”, der W.A. Mozart, in Salzburg als erster Hof- und Domorganist nachfolgte, zu faksimilieren.
