String Quartets, op. 33 nos. 1, 2 & 6, String Quartet, op. 42

Album by Joseph Haydn & Párkányí quartet

String Quartets, op. 33 nos. 1, 2 and 6, together with String Quartet, op. 42, are chamber works by Joseph Haydn composed in the 1780s. They exemplify Classical-era string quartet writing, characterised by balanced four-part textures, conversational interplay between the instruments, clear motivic development and Haydn's structural and harmonic innovations that helped shape the genre's evolution.
