The Symphony No. 101 in D major (Hoboken 1/101) is the ninth of the twelve London symphonies written by Joseph Haydn. It is popularly known as The Clock because of the "ticking" rhythm throughout the second movement. Composition, premiere, and receptionHaydn completed the symphony in 1793 or 1794. He wrote it for the second of his two visits to London. Having heard one of his symphonies played in London with an orchestra of 300-strong, his Clock Symphony has that large scale grandeur written in it.[1] On 3 March 1794, the work was premiered with an orchestra of 60 personally gathered by Haydn's colleague and friend Johann Peter Salomon, who also acted as concertmaster, in the Hanover Square Rooms, as part of a concert series featuring Haydn's work organized by Salomon; a second performance took place a week later.[2] As was generally true for the London symphonies, the response of the audience was very enthusiastic.[3] The Oracle reported that "the connoisseurs admit [it] to be his best work."[4] Additionally, the Morning Chronicle reported: As usual the most delicious part of the entertainment was a new grand Overture [that is, symphony] by HAYDN; the inexhaustible, the wonderful, the sublime HAYDN! The first two movements were encored; and the character that pervaded the whole composition was heartfelt joy. Every new Overture he writes, we fear, till it is heard, he can only repeat himself; and we are every time mistaken.[5] The work has always been popular and continues to appear frequently on concert programs and in recordings.[6] An average performance lasts about 27 minutes. The musicIt is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, two horns, two trumpets, timpani and strings. The work is in standard four-movement form, as follows:
The opening movement starts with a minor introduction consisting of 23 measures. A rising scale motif opens the Adagio, similar to the opening of the main theme of the Presto, and connects the Adagio to the main movement.[7] The main theme of the Presto is meant to catch attention — the rising scale motif begins and ends on the dominant, and two broken chords follow — the tonic and the second degree minor, and ends on the tonic.[8] This phrase also consists of 10 bars, broken into two parts of an odd 1+4 bar distribution. After the main theme, this phrase returns and starts the modulation by the usage of the A diminished chord, leading to E minor, which finally leads to E major, the dominant of A major. The secondary theme has a similar rhythmic pattern, also beginning with scales in the violins but descending this time, but it has more subtlety. A triumphant codetta concludes the exposition. The development begins with the secondary theme motif reoccurring in different instruments in counterpoint, and transitions into the different motifs of the main theme, also playing contrapuntally. The development turns toward conclusion with the secondary theme once more, and ends with a long falling scale. The recapitulation is straightforward, and the triumphant coda finishes this grand movement.[9] The Morning Chronicle said, "Nothing can be more original than the subject of the first movement, and having found a happy subject, no man knows like Haydn how to produce incessant variety, without once departing from it."[8] The second movement, from which the symphony gets its name, begins with plucked strings and a bassoon.[10] Towards the middle of the movement, there is a dark, fierce passage in G minor, followed by Haydnesque humor and finally the clock theme once again. Michael Steinberg said, "Haydn has a gratifying number of different clocks in his shop, offering 'tick-tock' in a happy variety of colors."[11] In 1793, Haydn had given his employer Prince Esterházy an elaborate musical clock, for which he wrote 12 short pieces, one of them being the basis for the third movement.[12] This movement, a minuet, is one of Haydn's longest.[13] The trio evokes a bungling village band, with more Haydnesque humor, similar to what Beethoven would use in the trio of his Pastoral Symphony.[14] Many scholars, publishers, and musicians, not knowing Haydn's humor, would often "correct" the trio.[15] The finale of the work is a monothematic rondo-sonata.[16] This means that the main theme and the secondary theme are similar, or in this case, almost identical, and the main theme is played every time a theme ends. Haydn vastly changes the main theme with each occurrence — something that is not done in rondo works. Even the bridges in between themes are similar to the main theme.[9] Haydn also builds a fugue into the last movement.[17] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Symphony No. 101, "The Clock"|url=http://www.laphil.com/philpedia/music/symphony-no-101-clock-joseph-haydn|website=LA Phil|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 2. ^Robbins Landon, pp. 240–42 3. ^{{cite web|title=Symphony No. 101, The Clock|url=https://content.thespco.org/music/compositions/symphony-no-101-the-clock-franz-joseph-haydn/|website=The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 4. ^Huscher n.d. 5. ^Robbins Landon, p. 241 6. ^{{cite web|title=Haydn - Symphony No. 101 (The Clock)|url=http://www.classicfm.com/composers/haydn/music/haydn-symphony-no-101-clock/|website=Classic FM|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 7. ^{{cite web|last1=Ennis|first1=Martin|title=Haydn: Symphony No. 101|url=http://www.linnrecords.com/recording-haydn-symphony-no-101.aspx|website=Linn Records|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 8. ^1 {{cite web|title=Joseph Haydn Symphony No. 101|url=http://bhco.co.uk/pages/node/158|website=Brandon Hill Chamber Orchestra|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 9. ^1 Steinberg 1998. 10. ^{{cite web|last1=Wigmore|first1=Richard|title=Symphony No 101 in D major 'The clock', Hob I:101|url=http://www.hyperion-records.co.uk/dw.asp?dc=W995_66528|website=Hyperion Records|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 11. ^Steinberg 1995, p. 237 12. ^{{cite web|last1=Morrison|first1=Chris|title=Symphony No. 101 in D major ("Clock"), H. 1/101|url=http://www.allmusic.com/composition/symphony-no-101-in-d-major-clock-h-1-101-mc0002390527|website=AllMusic|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 13. ^{{cite web|title=Haydn: Symphony No. 101 ("Clock")|url=http://arts.ucdavis.edu/post/haydn-symphony-no-101-clock|website=University of California, Davis|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 14. ^{{cite web|last1=Counts|first1=Jeff|title=Haydn - Symphony No. 101 in D Major "The Clock"|url=http://www.utahsymphony.org/insight/program-notes/614-haydn-symphony-no-101-in-d-major-%E2%80%9Cthe-clock%E2%80%9D|website=Utah Symphony|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 15. ^Beggerow 16. ^{{cite web|title=Symphony No. 101 "The Clock"|url=http://www.tso.ca/en-ca/Discover-the-music/Programme-Notes/Symphony-No-101-The-Clock.aspx|website=Toronto Symphony Orchestra|accessdate=11 January 2016}} 17. ^Grünewald 2015 Sources
