		Joseph Haydn said to his first biographer Dies: "I was born on 1 April, and that is the date found in my father's Hausbuch - but my brother Michael maintains I was born on the 31st of March because he doesn't want it said that I came into the world as an April fool".

		The place of his birth was originally called Tristnik, translated into German, Rohrau, then (whatever it may be now) a sleepy old-world village on the banks of the Leitha, in the very heart of a Croatian settlement in Hungary.
		The Leitha at Rohrau divides Hungary from Austria.
		But Mathias undoubtedly wanted to do his best for his boy, and Joseph himself must have had ambition of a sort—witness his endeavors to play the fiddle without a fiddle to play—and when Frankh undertook to place the boy in a choir and teach him music, the offer was joyfully accepted.

		Upon arriving in Rohrau, Franck was treated to one of the Haydn family’s after-dinner amusements — father played the harp, accompanying mother and her brood in peasant tunes.
		The young Joseph shuddered, and from far away in rustic Rohrau came word from father Haydn, Mathias, that he did not think a musician’s life could be worth such a barbarous operation.

		Rohrau Franz Joseph Haydn was born at the little market-town of Rohrau, near Prugg, on the confines of Austria and Hungary, some two-and-a-half hours' railway journey from Vienna.
		He was proud, as he said, of having "made something out of nothing." He does not seem to have been often at Rohrau after he was launched into the world, a stripling not yet in his teens.
		When in 1795 he was invited to inspect a monument erected to his honour in the grounds of Castle Rohrau, he knelt down on the threshold of the old home by the market-place and kissed the ground his feet had trod in the far-away days of youth.
