The 6 "Haydn" Quartets

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Juilliard String Quartet

The Six "Haydn" Quartets are a set of six string quartets by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, published in 1785. Composed between 1782 and 1785 and dedicated to Joseph Haydn, they expand the string quartet genre through intricate counterpoint, balanced conversational writing for the instruments and formal innovations that mark a significant development in Mozart's chamber music.
