    Roman Hoffstetter (1742-1814): "Haydn's Serenade" (Andante Cantabile from String Quartet in F major)
    Attributed to Joseph Haydn, Op. 3 No. 5, Hob.III:17

    The first mandolin here plays the full original first violin part in the original key (although I don't play the repeats). I have reduced the pizzicata accompaniment to two instruments, mandocello and second mandolin. Apologies for the blip at 0.58-1:00, where I got my fingering mixed up during the postion shift.
