Product Description The Doric String Quartet, one of the finest young chamber ensembles in the world today, present the first volume in their Haydn series, the six great Op. 20 Quartets (1772), each one a unique masterpiece. This opus introduced compositional techniques that radically and permanently transformed the genre. As well as having already produced a string of acclaimed Chandos recordings, the quartet has been widely praised for its live performances of Haydns works. The Sunday Telegraph wrote that Haydn and the Doric are a perfect match...terrific panache and perception Review "It's an age blessed with superb young string quartets and the Doric are among them. Instinctive grasp of the music and a very clear joy in performing it are evident throughout." --Gramophone Editor's Choice, December 2014
