Joseph Haydn / Symphony No. 45 in F-sharp minor "Farewell" (Mackerras)

The Adagio at the end of the Symphony was meant to be a subtle hint Haydn gave to his Patron, as he had forced all his Musicians to stay at his summer residence longer than they expected. The Adagio is therefore structured in such a way that musicians stopped playing and left in turn, meaning that "they wanted to go away"
