Joseph Haydn: String Quartets Op. 20
“In the beginning, Haydn is always difficult,” says Alina Ibragimova, violinist of the Chiaroscuro Quartet. “He’s not an easy composer to immediately know what to do with. All the quartets and individual movements have completely different characters about them, they’re in entirely different worlds.”
