Symphony No. 25 (Haydn)
# Symphony No. 25 (Haydn)

The Symphony No. 25 in C major, Hoboken I/25, is a symphony by Joseph Haydn.The symphony was most likely composed in 1763, or at the very earliest in 1761, at about the same time as No. 33.

It is scored for 2 oboes, bassoon, 2 horns, strings and continuo, and unlike most C major symphonies by Haydn lacks trumpets and timpani. The work is in three movements:

* Adagio, $^4$ $_4$ — Allegro molto, $^2$ $_4$
* Minuetto & Trio, $^3$ $_4$
* Presto, $^2$ $_4$

Unusually among Haydn's symphonies, this work lacks a slow movement, but it is partially compensated by the slow introduction.
