Concert | String Quartets by Haydn


The Dodd Quartet will perform Haydn String Quartets, Op. 74 and Op.103. Haydn's String Quartet Op. 74 No. 1 was written for big public concerts in London, in an attention- getting style sure to please a novelty seeking audience. Op. 103, which Haydn was unable to complete, was published with a line from his song "Der Greis" ("The Old Man"), "Hin ist alle meine Kraft, alt und schwach bin ich," ("All my strength is gone, I am old and weak"); it is the brooding, harmonically daring work of a composer who no longer needed to please any audience other than himself. The concert will last approximately 35 minutes.
