About
Haydn’s string quartets represent one of the greatest developments in the history of music. Here, they are presented complete, from the earliest divertimenti to the sophisticated ‘Apponyi’, ‘Erdödy’ and ‘Lobkowitz’ quartets written at the end of the eighteenth century.
“Naxos is lucky to have such a polished, beautifully balanced group as the Kodály Quartet to record Haydn.” Gramophone
