Looks like such a fun piece to play. Really equal parts for Mozart!

@dragondaemonis3801

I love coda themes in Mozart's quartets - like 18:55. They are so simple and catchy and they are like rays of sunshine after contrapuntal or virtuoso passages. Another one that comes to mind is from the finale of quartet 14.

Yesterday I stood inches away from a part of Mozart's original score in the British Library. What a moving experience.

This has sentimental value to me, being one of the very first quartets I bought decades ago; it was on the reverse side of the Hoffmeister Quartet on an HMV record, played by the Heutling Quartet..

@Constantinos Aspris Seems I was hasty in typing out that comment 8 months ago. Though, thanks to your reply I got to be prompted to come back and listen to this incredible quartet.

I wonder which movement you might have assumed I was referring to.

The finale: movement 4.

Mozart perform’d on the fortepiano for King Wilhelm II of Prussia in the 3rd year of his reign with the cooperation of his Masonic Brother Prince Karl Lichnovski, who apparently had been sent to Berlin on some kind of Masonic-related spy-mission relating to the approaching Revolution in France) on 26 May 1789–and having secur’d a Scrittura to compose ‘three easily perform’d quartets’ (Wilhelm II of Prussia was a talented amateur violoncellist) and started immediately on the first of his ‘Prussian Quartets’ (this one in D was enter’d into his Catalogue at the end of June 1789–following a promise to Lichnowsky to pay back the 100 dukaten he borrow’d for traveling expenses which he never repaid—until Lichnowsky sued him in Court in Jan 1791 to get back); he return’d to Vienna without Lichnowsky flat broke on 14 July 1789 (‘Bastille Day’) having apparently gambl’d away the last 40 dukaten in his pocket); the violoncello part of these Prussian Quartets often contain delicious solos & elegiac-bravura passages which were put into them ‘to please the King’ although when offer’d the reversion of the post of Kapellmeister in Berlin he (for some reason we shall never know !) he turn’d it down in favor of Joseph II who had made him Court Chamber Composer replacing Willibald von Gluck in November 1787)—had he accepted the Offer his life might have been very different...
