About

A new release by the Leipzig String Quartet, rounding off their critically acclaimed recordings of Haydn't String Quartets for MDG.

This seventh volume of quartets by Joseph Haydn with the impressive Quartet in D minor op. 42 shows the exemplary lightness the four Leipzig musicians capture just the right tone, rendering audible the Esterháza master’s multivalent winking wit – which is your invitation to wink along!
