This is the story of Joseph Haydn and his famous Farewell Symphony.
In 1772, Haydn worked for Prince Esterházy. Haydn and his orchestra stayed at the Prince's summer palace for a long time. The musicians missed their families and wanted to go home. Haydn had a clever idea to help them.
Haydn conducted a new piece – Symphony No. 45, the Farewell Symphony. As the music went on, something strange happened. One by one, the musicians blew out the candles on their stands and left the stage. In the end, only two violinists were left playing a gentle tune. The message was clear. Prince Esterházy understood Haydn’s message. He announced that the musicians could go home the next day.
Haydn showed his care for his orchestra with this clever symphony. The Farewell Symphony is a sign of his kindness and genius.
