Haydn is on his way to London with his impresario Salomon, a long journey in many stages. They stay a few days in Bonn. Since Elector Maximilian Franz is very fond of Haydn’s music, as a surprise, he has Haydn perform one of his own Masses. In the orchestra is a 20-year-old viola player, his name… Ludwig van Beethoven. We hear a few splendid parts from several of Haydn’s Masses, which are hardly ever performed.
