Symphony no. 93 was the first symphony performed in the second season in February 1792.

It was described at the time as “a composition of extraordinary merit”, and in a review at the time it was praised “for the most powerful effects of the Science, no one of his compositions can compare with it”.
Continuing the cooperation between Bärenreiter and the G. Henle publisher regarding Haydn’s large-scale choral works, operas and symphonies, this edition is based on the G. Henle Complete Edition of the “Works of Joseph Haydn”.
