String Quartet No. 19 (Mozart)
The String Quartet No. 19 in C Major, KV. 465 by Wolfgang Amadeus
Mozart, nicknamed "Dissonance" on account of its unusual slow
introduction, is perhaps the most famous of his quartets. It is the last in the
set of six quartets composed between 1782 and 1785 that he dedicated to Joseph
Haydn.
According to the catalog of works Mozart
began early the preceding year, the quartet was completed on January 14, 1785.
