Summary:

Symphony No. 93in D major was performed at the first of the second season of Salomon concerts in which Haydnwas concerned, on 17 February 1792. The programme was of the usual variety, including concertos for oboe, for harp and for violin, songs and a new Grand Overture by Haydn, the first of his symphonies for London, acclaimed by one critic as 'grand, scientific, charming and original'. Scored for pairs of flutes and oboes, bassoons, horns, timpani and strings, the symphony was presumably written in London in the preceding year, relying now on Haydn's familiarity with the abilities of the players at his disposal. The work opens with a slow introduction, based on a figure derived from the descending notes of the triad
