Recent Researches in the Music of the Classical Era

Carlo d'Ordonez has been regarded as one of the most talented of the Viennese contemporaries of Haydn. These six quartets, dating perhaps from the 1760s, first appeared in manuscript copies and were later published as Ordonez's Opus 1, by Guera in Lyons. As a group, they are fine examples of the mid-century Viennese style as found in the string quartet.
