String Quartet in C (K.465)
String Quartet in B flat (K.458)
Both these quartets belong to the set of six that Mozart dedicated to Haydn. That in C. the last of the set. has the celebrated slow introduction with the harmonic clashes or ' false relations' which caused certain players to return their copies to the publishers for the printers' errors to be corrected! Even now the opening bars produce an effect of strangeness and mystery, throwing into sharp relief the rest of the work which is straightforward in style.
Sometimes known as the ' Hunt'
Quartet, owing to the character of its opening, the one in B flat (K.458) is notable for a slow movement placed third, after the minuet, and written in Mozart's grandest manner
