String Quartets Vol. 4 of 14 op. 17, nos. 1 – 6

Album by Joseph Haydn & Auryn Quartet

String Quartets Vol. 4 of 14 op. 17, nos. 1–6 is a set of six string quartets by Joseph Haydn, published in 1772. These Classical-era chamber works are characterised by lively conversational interplay between the instruments, clear sonata-based structures and increasing expressive range, and they mark a key stage in Haydn’s development of the string quartet leading towards his later mature works.
First released: 2009
