Haydn: Symphony No. 26 in D minor 'Lamentatione': Movement I
The symphony by Joseph Haydn is relativley little known but has many interesting and unusal features. The name Lamentatione (italian for 'lamentation') is confusing because the plainsont melody quoted bar 17 was associated with the Passion naratives sung in church in Holy Week, not with the Lamentations of Jeremiah.
The symphony from c. 1770 is one of several with Sturm und Drang ('Storm and Stress') characteristics. Sturm und Drang was an artistic movement in Germany in all the arts which climaxed in the 1770's.
