About

Three of the six 'Haydn' Quartets in which, like instrumental mini-operas, Mozart achieves perfection. With the 'Hunt', Mozart displays a thoroughly Haydnian humour and mastery. Only K465 begins with a slow introduction, whose famous 'dissonances' put off the subscribers of the era, that contrasts with the luminous style of the rest of the work.
