Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: String Quartet in F major KV 168
Eugene Hartzell: String Quartet
Alban Berg: Lyric Suite

A good fifty years separate Alban Berg’s Lyric Suite from Eugen Hartzell’s only String Quartet. In addition to the free application of the twelve-tone method Schönberg developed in 1923, the two composers share a markedly expressive musical language and a commitment to Viennese Classicism, whose roots can be traced as far back as the early works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
