Description:
Over a 50-year period, Haydn composed more than 80 string quartets featuring a range and variety of structural invention exceeded only by Beethoven's works. In this volume, the composer's mastery of the form is strikingly evident, particularly in the six popular and much-recorded 'Prussian Quartets. '
This volume contains the full scores of:
Op. 42, in D minor (composed in 1785)
Op. 50, Nos. 1 6 ('Prussian Quartets, ' composed in 1787 anddedicated to the Prussian King Friederich Wilhelm II)
Op. 54, Nos. 1 3 (First set of 'Tost Quartets' composed c. 1788 and dedicated to the merchant Johann Tost)
Large, readable noteheads, ample margins fornotations, opaque paper and permanent binding make this a fundamental addition to music libraries and musicians' repertories.
Reprint of the Ernst Eulenburg Ltd. , London, n. d. edition.
