HELP ME!! HAYDN CONCERTO for doublebass

[vitoliuzzi]

Dear collegues,
I need your help. Haydn, as you know, wrote some trios with Barytone that we can play also with double bass.

But where can I find his Concerto for double bass (or similar). I know there's. But I don't where!!

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards

but not completely.
the first two measures survived.
i can´t upload it but i can mail a pdf if someone wants it

Thanks a lot.
I've got the two bars non burned. By the way, Haydn is the composer that when wrote "Cello" in example meaned also double bass. Or the Barytone was another instrument he loved and we can play all the works written for this instruument, duets and trios.
Karr surely will record some works for Barytone.

Thanks again, my friends.

Ops ... I have forgotten.
There are a lot of works by Haydn in the hands of Madam Esterazy ... does she live?? Esterazy family doesn't want to share a lot of material written for our instrument or cello, because they commisioned it and they think its themselves (what a no correct English).
I think something more than two bars exists today, and much more.

See you and regards

Hi there Bass Brother,
While studying with Ludwig Streicher, I uncovered some interesting clues to the possible where-a-bouts of the Haydn Bass concerto. Rumor has it that one of the concertos was in Eisenstadt at the end of WWII. At that very time, Russia was occupying Eisenstadt and it's rumored that the majority of stacks from the library of yet to be documented original manuscripts were in fact taken from the Esterhazy Estate and "relocated" to points unknown in Russia.
Cheers,
David Ruby

Thanks a lot!

It's an historical point of view that can be followed.

At this point I don't understand why all the other material is on your desks and something might be somewhere else. It's an "enigma". Gary Karr is sure that
Esterazy family has got a lot of musics written for them.

Now another hypothesis. Interesting.

Thanks again.

Vito Liuzzi (Haydn Concert for double bass) Boh!!!

In the mean time hear Catalin Rotaru play the Haydn C major Cello Concerto on Bass. It'll knock your socks off!
