Three string quartets from 1770-1800, a period when this genre became very popular with the Viennese public,
and for which Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven wrote some of their finest compositions.
This programme features Haydn at his most elegant and restrained (Op. 42), at his most quirky, witty, and even perhaps indulging in a musical representation of his compositional thought processes (Op. 20) and Beethoven typically seeking to stretch the boundaries of technique and structure.
