Programme Note

The Revolutionary Drawing Room continues its complete cycle of Beethoven's String Quartets with two more from the Op. 18 set dedicated to Prince Lobkowitz.  No. 5 in A major is remarkable for its elegance and refinement whilst the G major quartet No. 2 is perhaps closest to Haydn in its wit and humour.  Haydn's final completed quartet in F major has arguable his most beautiful slow movement.
