  Haydn

The Earl of Abingdon, himself a composer and flautist, was one of the prime movers in getting Haydn to visit London in the 1790s. He took Haydn round on visits to other members of the nobility, and Haydn paid him the compliment of using a song by the Earl as the theme of one of his trios. See the Corda editions of Haydn trios; also, we are preparing a number of songs by the Earl of Abingdon and have published sets of his country dances.
