Haydn - Cello Concerto No. 2 in D major VIIb:2 (PDF Sheet Music / Digital Download)

Discover the masterful blend of elegant Classicism and dazzling virtuosity with Joseph Haydn's Cello Concerto No. 2 in D Major. This magnificent work, a cornerstone of the cello repertoire, showcases the instrument's full expressive range, from profound depth to soaring, lyrical heights. Composed in 1783, this concerto was originally believed to have been written for the virtuoso cellist Anton Kraft, though modern scholarship now suggests it was for James Cervetto, a leading London cellist. Regardless of its dedicatee, this work is a brilliant showcase of Haydn's innovative spirit and his ability to push the boundaries of instrumental writing.
