    This is the second volume in the Doric String Quartet’s series devoted to Haydn’s String Quartets. Op. 76 turned out to be the last full set of six string quartets that Haydn was to compose. While they were written over the period 1796-97, they were not published until 1799. They had been commissioned by Count Joseph Erdödy, and such arrangements often entailed, as in this case, a period of time during which the works were reserved for that person’s exclusive use and enjoyment. The composition of Op. 76 coincided with Haydn’s work on Die Schöpfung and the first few of the six masses which Haydn wrote for the name day of Princess Maria Hermenegild Esterházy, and one can readily imagine that such compositional preoccupations rubbed off onto the composition of the quartets. However, that cannot be equated with a particular predominant ‘opus character’, a feature of some of Haydn’s previous sets. Rather – like Op. 20, also recently recorded by the Doric String Quartet (CHAN10831(2)) – the quartets seem to be most remarkable for their sheer variety. If there is anything they take from works such as Die Schöpfung, it is sheer plurality of stylistic references, a sense of traversing an entire world of musical possibilities.

    The Doric String Quartet has recorded a great deal of Romantic and early 20th century material, but with new violist Hélène Clément they have taken a turn toward Haydn, with distinctive results. In the composer's masterly Op. 76 set, from the very end of the 18th century, they deliver sharply etched, intense readings without a hint of the drawing room about them. The Op. 76 quartets, just as much as Haydn's very Beethovenian late piano sonatas, may be regarded as profound stylistic breakthroughs, especially surprising for someone in late life, and that's how the Doric approach them. The harmonic daring and the near-serial economy of some of the outer movements are delivered with hair-trigger tension, and the "Presto" finales carry a sense of feverish rhythmic release. The famed variations on the Austrian hymn of the String Quartet in C major, Op. 76, No. 3, are taken slowly, with a delicate, almost mystical feel. Most remarkable are the set of Minuet trios, which in the Doric's hands are much more than jocular: they're wildly experimental. Sample the trio of the "Minuet" of the String Quartet in B flat major, Op. 76, No. 4 ("Sunrise"), for an idea of what the Doric is up to here. They're ably aided by the Chandos engineering team, who use the sparkling detail of Suffolk's Potton Hall to bring you right up close to the musicians. It's almost too close, but it's not, and it fits the players' aims beautifully. A superior, daring Haydn quartet release in a field where there's a great deal of competition.
