Haydns Symphony in C major Hob. I: 90, dated 1788 in the autograph, belongs to a group of works that he composed between the Paris symphonies (Hob. I: 82-87) and the London symphonies (Hob. I: 93-104). It thus belongs to the last symphonies he wrote before his journeys to England in 1791-92 and 1794-95. Continuing the collaboration between Barenreiter and the G. Henle publishing company regarding Haydns large-scale choral works, operas and symphonies, this edition is based on the G. Henle Complete Edition of the Works of Joseph Haydn. With Symphony No. 90, Barenreiter has now published the complete performance material for all the symphonies from Nos. 82 to 104 as well as several Sturm und Drang symphonies. / Orchestre
