Answer:

Haydn

Step-by-step explanation:

Haydn wrote in nearly every form and genre that was popular during the Classical period, but he is best known for his symphonies and string quartets, even earning the title "Father of the Symphony" and "Father of the String Quartet" for his work developing these genres. Having a good orchestra at his disposal probably helped him as he developed both of these forms.
