Haydn is one of the few composers who can create such wonderful music with the employment of only a single musical idea; very cool opening movement. Using the key of F# major for the largo creates a really nice atmosphere as none of the instruments can utilize their open strings. Very buttery tone quality for the beautiful music.
I love this quartet, especially since its first movement is not a traditional sonata form, which gives to the whole quartet an impetus and a movement which I find so peculiar !

The largo is very beautiful, especially the section beginning at 9:00 up to the crescendo at 9:50
