Pictures from the opening ceremony on 26th May
This unique memorial exhibition renders homage to Joseph Haydn, composer and artist of genius, who died 200 years ago. He spent most of his life in the service of the Esterházys, a Hungarian princely family.
The eight-room show is set up in the Institute for Musicology, once and originally Erdődy-palace; includes exhibit material chosen and borrowed from 30 different Hungarian public collections. In addition to Haydn’s life and art the exhibition also wants to evoke the atmosphere of the composer’s everyday life and the cultural context of his oeuvre through numerous autograph scores, private and official letters; original documents; musical instruments from the period; fine art products (paintings, engravings, graphics), stage and costume designs, weapons, books, clothes and various objects of everyday life 200 year ago.
