String Quartets, Vol. V, Op. 33 (Russian Quartets) - Haydn/Feder - String Quartets - Parts Set
Additional Photos:
Composer: Joseph Haydn
Editor: Georg Feder
Format: Parts Set, Urtext Edition
Instrumentation: String Quartet
Haydn allowed about ten years to pass before composing a new cycle of string quartets after opus 20: the so-called "Russian Quartets". This is the first series of quartets that we know he wrote with publication in mind. "They are in a completely new and special manner", he wrote in several letters, and he was certainly not just referring to the fact that "Scherzi" replaced the minuets for the first time. Music lovers particularly appreciate the melodic ideas; thus the rich ornamentation of the main motif of op. 33,3, gave the quartet its nickname "Bird Quartet".
