The motto of the Modigliani Quartet, founded in Paris in 2003, is taken from the artist whose name they borrowed: “Your true duty is to save your dream.” Haydn deserves nothing less. The father of the string quartet wrote 68 works in the form. The Modiglianis have chosen three, from the great sets Op 50, Op 76 and Op 77. It may strike us as an arbitrary selection. Why these, and what will come next? But if you want to try out Haydn this is a representative starting point: the wit, ingenuity, laughter and gravitas come through in these occasionally rough-hewn but buoyant performances.
