“String Quartet in G Major, Op. 77 No. 1” – Joseph Haydn
One of Haydn’s latest and greatest quartets, “77/1” is possibly the liveliest quartet he ever penned. Featuring not one but two Presto movements, this quartet is a whirlwind of jaunty lines and cheeky jokes that surround one of the most gorgeous slow movements ever written.
