Joseph Haydn String Quartet op. 33/6 (mov 2+3+4/4) in D-Major

Joseph Haydn String Quartet op. 33/6
Quatuor Mosaiques

(Franz) Joseph Haydn[1][2] (March 31, 1732 May 31, 1809) was an Austrian composer. He was one of the most prominent composers of the classical period, and is called by some the "Father of the Symphony" and "Father of the String Quartet".

The Op. 33 String Quartets were written by Joseph Haydn in the summer and fall of 1781 for the Viennese publisher Artaria. This set of quartets has several nicknames, the most common of which is the "Russian" quartets, because Haydn dedicated the quartets to the Grand Duke Paul of Russia and many (if not all) of the quartets were premiered on Christmas Day, 1781, at the Viennese apartment of the Duke's wife, the Grand Duchess Maria Feodorovna

This quartet in D major is numbered in variously as No. 33, Hob. III:42 and FHE No. 75. 1. Vivace assai
2. Andante
3. Scherzo: Allegretto
4. Finale: Allegretto

The finale is in double variation form (ABA1B1A2) with themes in D major and D minor.

Excellent.Chamber music by Haydn is, in my opinion, the best chamber music.Thank you for posting.This is a brilliant version

Don' t you think that osaiques is a little bit too baroquesque and pre-coordinated, not a true quartet sound, where the notes are supposed not to sound simply together but be juxtaposed?

Es sencillamente genial, tiene el gusto y la sencillez del clasicismo con tintes barrocos en muchas de sus obras.
