List of symphonies by Joseph Haydn

There are 104 symphonies by the classical composer Joseph Haydn for which numbers are now generally agreed upon. These numbers correspond to the ones given in Anthony van Hoboken's catalogue of his works (e.g., Symphony No. 34 is listed as Hob. I/34). This numbering system does not reflect the actual order of composition very well; nevertheless, the system is now almost universally used (other systems have been used in the past).

Hoboken also includes four other works in his "Symphony" category (Hob. I):

*Hob. I/105 in B flat major, better known as the "Sinfonia Concertante for violin, cello, oboe and bassoon" (1792)
*Hob. I/106, for which only one part has survived (1769?)
*Hob. I/107 in B flat major, often known not by a number but as "Symphony A" (composed by 1762)
*Hob. I/108 in B flat major, often known not by a number but as "Symphony B" (composed by 1765)

It should be noted that Hob. I/105 is not really a symphony, but a symphonie concertante, and as No. 106 has not survived to the present day, the number of "symphonies" by Haydn is usually reckoned to be 106.Oxford Composer Companions: Haydn, ed.
