NEW HAYDN BIOGRAPHY WEBSITE

 

Wolfgang Oehmicke announces the launch of his German-language Joseph Haydn biography website: www.haydnbio.org 

He writes: "My motivation for this site and the aims of my work are described in the preface. There has not been a website in this special form yet. With scientific accuracy it shall contribute to a description of Haydn’s life and work according to present-day Haydn scholarship and achieve new insights by own research. The present version 1.0 indeed needs additional work, especially in the field of chronology of Haydn’s oeuvre. So you are welcome to give your critical view of contents and form of this site in order to establish a Haydn community knowledge pool."
