String Quartets, op. 9

Album by Joseph Haydn & London Haydn Quartet

String Quartets, Op. 9 is a set of six string quartets by Austrian composer Joseph Haydn, composed in 1769. The works exemplify the classical string quartet genre through balanced interplay between two violins, viola and cello, clear sonata forms and conversational textures, and they represent an early stage in Haydn's development of quartet writing that contributed to the genre's formal and expressive conventions.
