The Haydn Baryton Trio Budapest was founded by Balázs Kakuk in 1980 with the intention to revive Joseph Haydn’s almost 200 compositions for baryton – an original instrument of Prince Esterházy Miklós, the Magnificent – in order to perform the pieces in authentic and original instrumentation. The Ensemble plays all Baryton trios from Haydn as well as quintets, octets and the baryton divertimenti from other composers of the Esterházy circle. The Trio has done film music recordings, TV-productions, concert tours worldwide.
