The menuetto from string quartet Op. 2, No. 2, also exists in an arrangement for lute and string trio, possibly by Haydn himself (recorded by J. Bream). There are five movements in the version for original but only four in the lute version. (the first menuetto was omitted) In my arrangement I have kept violin I part and arranged the violin II, viola and cello part for guitar. I have made some slight changes to suit the guitar better. The work is more a divertimento than a quartet in the sense of Haydn’s later work in the genre - light, cheerful and a bit baroquelike construction and ornamentation.
