During the time of Mozart and Haydn, the orchestra underwent significant expansion and evolution, both in size and instrumentation. The string section became more prominent, while woodwinds and brass instruments were increasingly included, enhancing the richness of the sound. Additionally, the emergence of the symphonic form and the development of distinct orchestral roles for different instruments marked a shift towards more complex and expressive compositions. This transformation laid the groundwork for the classical symphony and influenced future orchestral music.
Haydn is famous as the Father of Symphonies with his 104 compositions in the genre. Mozart wrote 41 symphonies and more than 30 concertos (27 of them to piano and orchestra). These two composers are credited for development in the symphony and classical concerto.
The modern orchestra was first introduced during the classical period. Classical composers developed the genres of symphony and classical concerto (solo instrument and orchestra). Among the pioneer classical composers stand F. J. Haydn and W. A. Mozart.
Beethoven and Haydn certainly did, Haydn taught Beethoven. Between Beethoven and Mozart the picture is less certain, they may have met in Vienna in 1787, and some people think that Beethoven may even have had a few lessons from Mozart. However the records are not clear or contemporaneous. Mozart and Hayden were great friends.
