About This Item
Joseph Haydn's Op. 1 heralded the birth of a new genre. These six early works by the young composer, famed for his mischievous humour, delight and fascinate with their freshness and exuberance, quirky, irregular phrase-lengths and unexpected pauses. Thanks to this gripping performance by the highly acclaimed Leipzig String Quartet, this recording makes for highly pleasurable listening. Album Tracks 1. Quartet B flat major Op. 1, 1 (Hob.
