String Quartet in D Major, K. 499, was written in 1786 in Vienna by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It was published by — if not indeed written for — his friend Franz Anton Hoffmeister. Because of this, the quartet has acquired the nickname Hoffmeister.
There are four movements: * I. Allegretto, in D major * II. Menuetto: Allegretto, in D major, with a trio section in D minor * III. Adagio, in G major * IV. Allegro, in D major
This work, sandwiched between the six quartets he dedicated to Joseph Haydn (17825) and the following three Prussian quartets (178990), intended to be dedicated to King Frederick William II of Prussia (the first edition bore no dedication, however), is often polyphonic in a way uncharacteristic of the earlier part of the classical music era. The menuetto and its trio give good examples of this in brief, with the brief irregular near-canon between first violin and viola in the second half of the main portion of the minuet, and the double imitations (between the violins, and between the viola and cello) going on in the trio.

Thanks Elias12816! The last movement of Quatuor Mosaiques playing K590 is wild and perfect for summer, if you get the chance to post it, hehe.
I'm sad I missed them playing Beethoven's 132 this April at Carnegie Hall. Maybe it was recorded :( ?

Love the recording! There is just something soo delicate yet utterly profound in this movement, and with that cheeky, optimistic spirit that is the essential love of life, Mozart's music for me reaches that spiritual plateau of the divine. Elias your choice of music and recordings has forced me to become a subscriber :) keep up the good work!!
