The London Haydn Quartet's recordings of their namesake continue to win universal plaudits, consistently delivering-in the words of The Guardian-'too many pleasures to enumerate. Try for yourself.'

"The London Haydn Quartet's chronological survey of the composer's quartets is nearing its completion: the most civilised music, delivered with immaculate technique, urbane humanity and perfect period manners." - The Sunday Times

"This is domestic music, after all, and perhaps a certain amount of understatement actually enhances the boldness of Haydn's invention. Hyperion's recorded sound captures that small-room acoustic persuasively while still letting Jonathan Manson's cello glow…There are bolder, funnier, more wildly imaginative accounts of this music out there but you never doubt the LHQ's sincerity, or the validity of their approach." Gramophone
