    Featuring violinists Geoffrey Michaels and Philip Kates, violist David Giles, and cellist Charles Forbes, the Philadelphia-based Liebesfreud is an ensemble devoted primarily to the performance of great literature for the string quartet. For this performance, the ensemble celebrates the 255th Anniversary of the birth of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart with a duo of his beloved "Haydn” string quartets. String Quartet No. 16 in E flat Major, K. 428 is the third of the Haydn Quartets, a set of six string quartets he wrote during his first few years in Vienna and later dedicated to Joseph Haydn. String Quartet No. 17 in B-flat major K. 458, nicknamed "The Hunt," is the fourth of the Quartets dedicated to Haydn, and is regarded as one of his most popular quartets.
