One of this man's symphonies features a prestissimo opening suddenly halted as the violins begin to retune their strings on stage. That C major symphony was nicknamed "The Distracted." An oratorio by this composer features a four-part fugue in its "Awake the Harp" section, meant to symbolize a celebration of the title action, The Creation. A symphony by this man in D major is named for a bassoon motif with a "ticking rhythm." He worked for the EsterhÃ¡zy family and instructed orchestra members to leave one by one in his Farewell Symphony, composed in London. For 10 points, name this composer of the Clock Symphony and the Surprise Symphony.
