<p class="just">Brother of composer <a href="haydn_fj.htm">Franz Joseph Haydn</a>, Johann began singing as a chorister at St. Stephens in Vienna around 1745. While there, he studied violin, clavier, and counterpoint. In 1757, he was appointed to the court of the Bishop of Grosswardein (now northern Romania). In 1763, he won an appointment as <em>Kon</em>­<em>zert</em>­<em>meister</em> to Archbishop Schrattenbach of Salzburg. He also played the organ at the Dreifaltigkeits Church in Salzburg, and taught violin at the court. The Royal Swedish Academy of Music inducted him in 1804.
