The Seven Last Words of Our Savior on the Cross, Op. 51

Joseph Haydn

String Quartet

The Lindsays

1992 Very well recorded.

If you're gonna have drama and expression, who are you gonna call? The Lindsays. They give you the emotion and expression, putting interpretation and communication first.

Vienna Konzerthaus Quartet

early 1950s

An expressive, almost romantic reading that suits the work’s emotional character. The sound is rougher than the Lindsays’ recording.
