Haydn: Symphony no.67 in F Major, Hob.I:67 (with score)

Haydn's Symphony No. 67 in F major, Hob.I:67, composed in 1779, is one of the most boldly original symphonies of the period.
The work is scored for two oboes, two bassoons, two horns and strings.[1] There are four movements:

1. Presto 00:00
2. Adagio 06:05
3. Menuetto & Trio 13:53
4. Finale: Allegro di molto 16:28

REMARKABLE THINGS AND MOMENTS IN THIS SYMPHONY:

This is the only symphony where Haydn opens in fast 6/8 time without a slow introduction.

At the end of the second movement, the entire string section is directed to play 'col legno', meaning with the wood of the bow, to a humorous effect (13:37)

The trio of the minuet is scored for two solo violins each playing con sordino on single strings. The first violin plays the melody on the E string and the second violin tunes its G string down to F and plays a drone on the open string (14:52)

The closing Allegro di molto departs from the standard finale form. It features its own internal Adagio e cantabile slow movement (19:06) .
The fast music is first interrupted by a solo string trio (two violins and cello) instructed to play piano e dolce. The rest of the orchestra elaborates on this slow section, including some passages for the string trio's woodwind counterparts (two solo oboes and a bassoon), before the
initial Allegro di molto section returns (23:55) and Haydn brings the symphony to its conclusion.
