The Castalian Quartet are phenomenal! Such tremendous musicianship, imagination, spontaneity and beauty! Thank you for this fabulous performance.
Magnificent playing by all 4 but must single out the 1st violin for one of the most sublime performances I have encountered.
Magnificent. Haydn is not easy. This quartet can do it. Compliments!

I've just recently started listening to Haydn's string quartets after hearing the symphonies. What a genius to create music so beautiful and the young musicians here do a great job with this particular piece.
Wenn ich das Castilian Streichquartett höre, kriege ich das Freudestrahlen nicht mehr aus dem Gesicht.
What a zest the fists violin put to the music! She does some subtle changes in the time and intonation that gives to this marvelous quartet even more beauty
Reall what an exquisite performance, 0:26 this is really heart touching theme, which seldomly make me 😢 with pleasure and delight. And 10:00 some of the most beautiful theme I ever heard. Thank you to all the performers, may God bless you with sublime felicity.
Amazing ,
Congratulations !
Simply Fantastic!!!
Excellent!

Haydn wäre stolz!

15:56 really does give pirates of carribean vibes
Hoomeyow!!
13:10 happy part
That fact that nobody is allowed to applaud after movements has and always will drive me crazy. Why?! It feels so wrong...
I cannot fathom how anybody benefits from it. It seems clear to me that everyone suffers from it, the audience AND the musicians.
Yes I agree!!
