Quartet in B flat major, Op 76 No. 4, (Sunrise)

Available for over a year

The op. 76 Quartets and ‘the Creation’ were written simultaneously, and listening to the quartets it’s easy to see the larger work rubbing off on them. None more so than the 4th, nicknamed ‘Sunrise’ due to the opening ascending melody. Composer: Joseph Haydn Performers: Quatuor van Kuijk Recording date: 13 October 2016 Date of broadcast: 30 December 2016
