A heart full of joy (Franz Joseph Haydn)


When I think of God,
my heart is so full of joy 
that the notes leap and dance
as they leave my pen. 

--Franz Joseph Haydn            

To hear Wynton Marsalis join the Boston Pops Orchestra to perform notes that leap and dance in Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto, click on the video below:
