Publisher's Synopsis
(Music Minus One). Haydn's second quartet contains the famous 'witches' minuet' in which the violins, in octaves, lead with a rather spooky tune that is them imitated by the lower instruments, making quite an unearthly canon. Contains a high-quality printed music score and a compact disc featuring the quartet in split-channel stereo with the violinist on the right channel; then again in an accompaniment version minus the solo violin part. Performed by Nicholas Milton, 1st violin Accompaniment: The Bedford String Quartet: Robert Zubrycki, 2nd violin; Kathleen Foster, viola; Arthur Fiacco, violoncello
