Symphony No. 30 (Haydn)

30 in C major, Hoboken I/30, is a symphony by Joseph Haydn composed in 1765, at the age of 33.

The Alleluia chant of the first movement has been confused with the principal melodic line in the finale of Mozart's Symphony No.

[2] The work is scored for flute, two oboes, bassoon, two horns, trumpets, timpani,[3] and strings with continuo.

In the development, after the first theme is restated, the first three notes of the motif (do-re-mi) are repeated seven times at different pitch levels against sixteenth-note accompaniment.

[6] Mark Ferraguto has discussed Haydn's deliberate use of spare instrumental scoring and minimal melodic material in the trio of the symphony.
