String Quartets No. 18 KV 464 / No. 19 KV 465 "Dissonance"

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Quartetto Italiano

String Quartets No. 18 KV 464 and No. 19 KV 465 'Dissonance' are chamber works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1785. They are in the Viennese Classical style and mix lyrical melodies with contrapuntal textures and moments of harmonic tension; No. 19 opens with pronounced dissonance that resolves into more conventional classical harmonies, and both quartets form part of the set Mozart dedicated to Joseph Haydn near the end of his chamber music output.
