“Masterly and full of new ideas”: thus the Swedish ambassadorial secretary Silverstolpe when he first heard these pieces in 1797. Haydn’s friend, the music historian Charles Burney, reported in 1799 that he had “never taken greater pleasure in instrumental music.” Our new edition of these six works, including the famous “Emperor Quartet,” follows the text of the complete edition prepared by the Haydn Institute in Cologne. Both the study edition (HN 9214) and the set of parts (HN 214) have highly informative notes on the source materials and alternative readings. Fold-out pages in the parts allow for optimum page turns.

Reviews
The house style of G. Henle is well-known, and once again they are to be commended for their meticulous accuracy. This is printed music that appeals because of the clarity of its appearance, and the care taken to assist the player.
[Stringendo, 2004]
Bei den großzügig ausgelegten Stimmen fällt sowohl der ausgezeichnet lesbare Druck als auch das "umblättern-freundliche" Layout besonders angenehm auf.
Alles in allem eine der besten Neuerscheinungen am Notenmarkt.
