The Surprise Symphony



In our continuing effort to bring you all the best in music and men, today I have a complete symphony by Franz Joseph Haydn, known as the Father of the Symphony.  The video is Symphony Number 94, the Surprise Symphony, performed by Capella Istropolitana conducted by Barry Wordsworth with the imagery by William Bougeureau.  This symphony was written in 1791 while Haydn was in the service of the aristocratic family Esterhazy in Austria.  Haydn was a contemporary of Mozart and at one time the teacher of Beethoven.  This is a wonderful piece of classical music performed with excellence.  To accompany the video, I once again dived into my archives to come up with some really sensual photos of handsome hunks to delight your senses.  Thanks for visiting and come back soon.  Until next time as always, Enjoy!
