String Quartets, op. 33

Album by Joseph Haydn & Doric String Quartet

String Quartets, Op. 33 is a set of six string quartets by Joseph Haydn, published in 1782. They exemplify Haydn's mature quartet writing, featuring increased conversational interplay between instruments, inventive textures, rhythmic vitality and wit, and they signalled important developments in the string quartet genre that influenced later composers.
