Synopsis
Product Description
The three string quartets of the Op. 50 cycle performed here by the Prazak Quartet are both bright and full of humor. Haydn wrote sixty-eight quartets, all composed after he was already 40 years old. They were nearly all written solely for private performances by top musicians, often with Haydn joining in as second violinist. Scholars have said that the Op. 50 quartets contain some of the purest writing Haydn ever accomplished.
