Dvorak's quartets

I'm spending some time reacquainting myself with Dvorak's string quartets. Except for the American, opus 96, I had no real memory of them, I'm embarassed to say; but I'm making up for that now. They are wonderful. I'm particularly taken with opus 51 right now, especially the first theme of the slow movement, which stays with you. More detailed comments to follow
