Allegro molto Luigi Boccherini Cello Concerto in B flat major (org. version) 7. Allegro moderato 8. Andantino grazioso 9. Rondo. Allegro Haydn & the Cello Concerto © Haydn’s importance for the history of music rests among other things on his definitive formulation of the classical sonata form and thereby the form of the symphony and the string quartet. He also contributed to both genres with an abundance of works He did complete complete the first “modern” cello concerto, a work that continues to loom large in the cello repertoire, and he also composed what must be termed the best trumpet concerto yet written. The concerto for cello and orchestra is in many ways a peculiar phenomenon. The instrument is a popular one, and this century has seen a substantial number of international virtuosos. None the less, the number of great cello concertos is very modest when compared to the wealth of comparable works for the violin and for the piano. After Haydn and Boccherini nothing of any substance was written until 1850, when Schumann composed his A minor concerto, the first romantic concerto for the instrument.
