In Haydn's baryton trios, the baryton part is notated in treble clef. This is plausible, but seems high, given that the highest baryton string is tuned d' and the parts, as written, typically run to g'' or a". But if it is meant to sound an octave lower than written, the baryton part would still be consistantly above the viola but in lower positions (i.e. more playable by Prince Eszterhazy) and in closer ensemble voicings. The octave-down transposition seems more likely to me, but I would be happy to be corrected.
