RE: what's life without a stomach. My husband had his stomach removed 2 years ago and is doing fine. Food with sugar he should stay away from as many food will cause dumping. You can make things with splenda or like I make banana bread and the such with 1/2 cup sugar and the same of splenda. Dairy products do not work at all for people without a stomach. Cheese is the exception as it binds.
In 1784 Haydn received a commission to write six symphonies from the directors of the Concert de la Loge Olympique, the largest concert-giving organization in Paris. In the Symphonies Nos. 82-87, known ever since as the Paris Symphonies, one senses a greater depth and breadth of musical substance.
After the Paris Symphonies, there were five more completed by the end of the decade. Nos. 88 and 89 were written for Johann Tost, who took them to Paris and sold them to a publisher there. The Symphony No. 88 has always been recognized as one of Haydn's finest.
