George Lucktenberg\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaydn was primarily responsible for shaping the Classical style of performance. During the 18th century, when composers focused mainly on the sonata, quartet and symphony, Haydn's slow-maturing genius assimilated and consolidated the trends into an individual style that was both inspired and disciplined. These eight pieces are among Haydn's easiest works and are presented in their unsimplified, original form. Based on careful study, the editorial markings are clearly distinguished from the composer's.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem No:\u003c\/b\u003e    00-1718\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e    Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e    24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e    Alfred Masterwork Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGenre:\u003c\/b\u003e    Masterwork\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLevel:\u003c\/b\u003e    Intermediate \/ Late Intermediate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eYear Published:\u003c\/b\u003e    1978\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"ALFRED","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67731208339647,"sku":"ALF 1718 38081035642","price":6.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1335\/9063\/files\/00-1718.jpg?v=1792726656","url":"https:\/\/www.imaginethismusic.com\/products\/alf-00-1718","provider":"Imagine This Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
