I like the similarity between this fuga theme and Mozart's Kyrie Eleison.

[sama.]

One of his best quartets imo, beautifully tragic and poignant

Delicate and expressive! The fugal finale was particularly delightful! Thank you for the upload!

So magic, soo wonderful ...the music writing is amazing

[heldcomposer]

The beginning of the last movement is similar to that of the Kyrie, Requiem, by Mozart.

[anncallaway]

Score has some typos as well as a lot of slurs missing in the 1778 print!

Aquest quartet mostra la vessant més melancòlica de «papa» Haydn.
