JOSEPH HAYDN
Haydn: String Quartets Opp 42, 77 & Seven Last Words
The London Haydn Quartet

[ Hyperion / 2 CD ]

Release Date: Friday 9 June 2023

Haydn's 'Seven Last Words' (heard here in the composer's own arrangement for string quartet) is simply sublime, and a fitting testimonial to the composer's deep, enduring faith. It provides an apt and generous coupling for the two magnificent Op 77 quartets, Haydn's final complete contribution to the string quartet genre.
