Album by Joseph Haydn & Auryn Quartet

String Quartets, Op. 1, nos. 1–6 are a set of six early string quartets by Joseph Haydn composed in the mid-1750s. They exhibit early Classical style with clear textures, balanced phrase structures and traces of Baroque counterpoint, representing an initial stage in Haydn's development of the string quartet and of the chamber-music repertoire.
