Milanese String Quartets by Mozart and Monza
Mozart’s “Milanese” Quartets, written during his sojourn in the northern Italian city in the early 1770s, are among the earliest examples of his emerging mastery in the realm of chamber music. The works of Carlo Monza, an eminent musical authority in his day whom young Mozart certainly crossed paths with in Milan, are all but forgotten today.
