Haydn instead learned music from a paternal cousin named J.M. Unlike many great composers, Haydn did not come from a musical family. However, another work of similar technical difficulty that is also identified and published as a concerto is the Concerto in F, Hob. Franz Joseph Haydn was born on March 31st, 1732 in Rohrau, a village in Austria about 30 miles south-east of Vienna. XIV:3 (the "Little Concerto" in C major), and Hob. Two works often identified and even published as piano concertos by Haydn, and commonly taught to younger piano students, are actually Divertimenti, grouped in Hob. 3, 4, and 11 are considered confirmed as genuine. XVIII:F3 (doubtful authenticity, perhaps to be attributed to Johann Georg Lang) XVIII:F1 (spurious authenticity, written by Georg Joseph Vogler) XVIII:8 (uncertain authenticity, perhaps to be attributed to Leopold Hofmann, 1766) XV:40 uncertain authenticity, perhaps to be attributed to Georg Christoph Wagenseil, 1766) XVIII:7 (exists with a different slow movement as the piano trio Hob. XVIII:5 (uncertain authenticity, perhaps to be attributed to Georg Christoph Wagenseil, 1763)

There are 3 concertos for baryton known but which have been lost or have doubtful authenticity. VIIh:5 (1786) second and third movement later adapted to be part of Symphony No. VIIh:3 (1786) "Romance" movement later adapted to become the "Military" movement of Symphony No. Modern performances use flute and oboe (or two flutes) as the soloists. These concertos were written for Ferdinand IV, King of Naples whose favorite instrument was the lira organizzata - an instrument similar to the hurdy-gurdy. VIIg:C1 (1790?) (doubtful, possibly by Ignaz Malzat) Haydn also wrote several more concertos, which have all been lost. VIId:5 (uncertain possibly by Antonio Rosetti maybe Hob. Concerto for Two Horns in E flat, Hob.VIId:4 (uncertain possibly by Michael Haydn) (1767) VIIc:1 (lost may have been burned and destroyed?) VIIb:5 (spurious, written by David Popper in 1899) VIIb:4 (spurious, written by Giovanni Battista Costanzi in the 1750s) D1 - Concerto, in D major, for violin and orchestra (2 oboes, 2 horns, 2 violins, viola and bass) (work by Carl Stamitz?) - G1 - Concerto, in G major, for violin and strings (2 violins, viola and bass) (work by Michael Haydn?) (1762) - A1 - Concerto, in A major, for violin and … (work by Giovanni Mane Giornovichi?) - B1 - Concerto, in B flat major, for violin and strings (2 violins, viola and bass) (by Michael Haydn) (1760) - B2 - Concerto, in B flat major, for violin and strings (2 violins, viola and bass) (by Christian Cannabich) (1767) For violoncello VIIa:D1/G1/A1/B1/B2) are not authentic, i.e. The exceptions are the concertos for keyboard and for baryton which are placed in categories XVIII and XIII, respectively. In the Hoboken catalogue of Haydn's works, concertos for most instruments are in category VII with a different letter for each solo instrument (VIIa is for violin concertos, VIIb is for cello concertos, etc.). The following is a partial list of concertos by Joseph Haydn (1732–1809).
