Since God has given me a cheerful heart, he will forgive me for serving him cheerfully.
Darn, where is it? The score of my first opera. I’m quite sure I left it on my piano. It must have been stolen. Help…!
It`s a commissioned work for the famous Viennese actor Bernardon. Not the most charmful piece about a certain Afflisio, which he wrote the lyrics for. This Afflisio was a theatre general director and a really shady guy.
Oh, pardon, where are my manners?
Let me introduce myself:
My name is Franz Joseph Haydn, but please call me Jo. I was born on the 31 st of March in 1732 in Rohrau, in Lower-Austria. I passed away on the 31st of May 1809.
But don’t panic, I’m back again in order to help you finding the culprit. Stay alert, I’ll sometimes give you hints to help you arrest that crooked evildoer…
