 Joseph Haydn
In his early years Haydn chiefly wrote instrumental music, including symphonies and other pieces for the twice-weekly concerts and the prince's Tafelmusik, and works for the instrument played by the prince, the baryton (a kind of viol), for which he composed circa 125 trios in ten years.
Moreover, all music that he produced while employed at this court would become the property of the prince, to such an extent that the composer was forbidden to give away copies of his own compositions to any other person.
In becoming the Esterházy's Kapellmeister (music master), Haydn surrendered any dreams of personal freedom, but in return, received thirty years of job security, as well as the resources, musical and financial, to compose as much music as was humanly possible.

 Ludwig van Beethoven
Until 1794 he was supported by the Elector at Bonn but he found patrons among the music-loving Viennese aristocracy and soon enjoyed success as a piano virtuoso, playing at private houses or palaces rather than in public.
Musical taste in Vienna had changed during the first decades of the 19th century; the public were chiefly interested in light Italian opera (especially Rossini) and easygoing chamber music and songs, to suit the prevalent bourgeois taste.
Unlike composers of the preceding generation, he had never been a purveyor of music to the nobility he had lived into the age - indeed helped create it - of the artist as hero and the property of mankind at large.

 Dolmetsch Online - Music Theory Online - Music of the 19th Century
While the concept of early music changed during the eighteenth and nineteenth century, the idea, suggested by the German musicologist Andreas Holschneider, that it is associated with an interrupted interpretive tradition, provides an elegant way of describing both its nature and the problems that one faces when performing this repertoire today.
The music of Palestrina, Victoria, Byrd, Morley, Purcell and many others continued to be promoted by John Pepusch's Academy of Ancient Music, The Madrigal Society, numerous Catch Clubs, and the Concert of Ancient Music with their proscription of music less that twenty years old.
In the early 19th century 'political' music was written to stir the emotions, generate candidate support, and cast doubt on the opposition.
