I knew I had heard it, and thoughts of Dvorak quickly turned to his son-in-law, Suk :)

Here's some chamber music for a change of pace:

Well, it sounds a lot like a Haydn string quartet, but I have no idea which one! Am I right? :)

It's probably an early-mid 19th C composer who is not well known for string quartets, perhaps an opera composer

The piece sounds very Classical and akin to Haydn and Mozart. There is a strange clashing harmony around the 33rd second. It could be early Schubert.
