In Reply to: Op 76 a great place to start posted by madisonears on July 9, 2012 at 21:04:35:
Haydn practically invented the string quartet, and Op. 76 is a major high point of Western music (yes, just my opinion, but a very commonly shared opinion). I'm also a big fan of the now retired Lindsays, not in spite of their admitted lack of absolute precision, but because of it. They know how to make music breathe.
