Joseph Haydn

Largo assai in E major, Hob. III:74/ii

after 1793

This is an arrangement of the second movement of the string quartet in E major (Hob. III:74). The arrangement is possibly spurious. Part of the arrangement is lost, but it can be reconstructed straightforwardly from the original quartet and contemporary arrangements.
