2003 will be another busy year for Adam Fischer and Austro-Hungarian Haydn Orchestra. Following a concert on January 25, Adam and Haydn Orchestra will appear three times in Budapest on February 24th, April 22nd, and May 9th. They will perform at the Vienna Musikverein on March 7th.
The Haydntage 2003 starts on September 11th and ends on 21st. The orchestra does not

at the moment)

likely, it will be available worldwide.
