Abstract

This article is devoted to the instrumental specificity of articulation markings of Joseph Haydn’s keyboard sonatas. Study of articulation markings and peculiarities of its use by the composer can point the way to solve one of the topical problems of modern musical science – choosing the keyboard instrument. Based on theoretical treatises of the 18th century and modern scientific research, the author proved that some kind of articulation markings in specific contexts can be realized only on the touch-sensitive instruments like Clavichord and Fortepiano.

Keywords: Joseph Haydn, keyboard sonata, Harpsichord, Clavichord, articulation markings, Tragen der Töne
