That's never stopped you before. ;D

Mozart's string quintets > his string quartets (qualitatively). Though, k387 is sublime!

horserace thinking.

Mozart's quintets are stunning. So are his quartets.

What's this obsession with listing/poll topics here? One or two is an amusing divertimento, but every other topic...  ::)

Divertimenti aren't included here, sorry.

What is your problem Rod, if you don't like the poll/topic, no one is forcing you to participate in any of them?  Several actually do like to participate in them, cause it's fun.  It is only for interest and curiosity's sake.

I took 387, 428 and 590. lately I have been listening a lot to the last three, the Prussian Quartets.

However I think it's fair to say these are all amazing works, from 387 through 590. I have been listening to these quartets for thirty years now, and the remain inexhaustible.

The ones that are, perhaps, not as brimful with ideas as the other ones, 458 and 499, as still indispensible, and I cen remember having a distinct fondness for these two works.

I think of this type of thread as a conversation starter. Maybe it seems a bit useless at first, but some fine discussion can develop around the central concept.

Well, one has to read between the lines sometimes. This thread isn't really about picking 3; it's about a love for Mozart's string quartets.
