on BBC Radio 3

"Haydn and Pleyel are to be pitted against each other this season; and the supporters of each are violent partizans. As both these Composers are men of first-rate talents, it may be hoped that they will not participate in the little feelings of their respective admirers."
(Public Advertiser, 5 Jan 1792) Presented by Susan Sharpe , with Denys Hawthorne as Haydn.
