The Horn Concerto No. 1 is also notable for the technical demands made on the soloist, not least the large octave leaps in the lower range of the instrument.
The Harpsichord Concerto in D major is one of a group of such works apparently designed initially for the organ. The relatively extended and rarely recorded Double Concerto for Harpsichord, Violin and Strings is Haydn’s only surviving concerto for two solo instruments.

“The late Trumpet Concerto - by far the finest work on the disc - is despatched in enjoyable bright, forthright style by Jürgen Schuster, though he rather jabs at the main theme of the finale.”
“Striking athletecism, musical insight, expressive embellishment and elegiac lyricism”
