Mozart: The Milanese Quartets

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s six ‘Milanese’ quartets constitute a milestone in his artistic activity. Written between Bolzano and Milan between 1772 and 1773, they came a few years after the Quarte t K80/73f that he had composed in Lodi during his first Italian visit. More than that work, these six pieces constitute one of the first organic sets of string quartets ever conceived. (Arcana)
