Tomorrow morning, on the eve of the anniversary of the birth of Franz Joseph Haydn (on March 31, 1732), we’ll anticipate the great day with music inspired by Haydn, music by Haydn’s colleagues, and rarely-heard works by Haydn himself.

Other composers will include Johannes Brahms, Norman Dello Joio, Marcel Grandjany, Roman Hoffstetter, Anton Kraft, Andre Previn, Maurice Ravel, Johann Peter Salomon, Alfred Schnittke, Ananda Sukarlan, and Joseph Weigl, Haydn’s godson. We’ll even have a piano concerto by Haydn Wood, who was named for Haydn by his music-mad parents, though they pronounced it “Hayden.”

At 10:00, I’ll be joined by members of Boheme Opera NJ, who will talk a little bit about the company’s upcoming production of “Lucia di Lammermoor,” which will be performed at The College of New Jersey’s TCNJ-Kendall Hall on April 7 at 8 p.m. and April 9 at 3 p.m., so we might just hear a selection or two by Donizetti, as well.

Otherwise, it will be a prolonged game of Haydn seek, tomorrow morning from 6 to 11 EDT, on WPRB 103.3 FM and wprb.com. Join me for a full morning of hidden Haydn, on Classic Ross Amico.
