🇩🇪Franz Joseph Haydn ： Keyboard Concerto in C-Dur Hob.XVIII:10

Built around exchanges between the solo keyboard instrument and the orchestra, this concerto unfolds through clear phrases and light, buoyant rhythms. The contrasting characters of its movements create variety: the lively sections highlight the music’s forward momentum and the sparkle of the solo part, while the gentler passages reveal the beauty of the melodies and the delicacy of the dialogue. In performance, it is important to avoid an overly heavy sound and aim for clear, well-defined articulation. Ornaments should be shaped naturally without disturbing the flow, and careful attention to balance and handoffs with the orchestra helps bring out the work’s poised, lively character.
