		Very likely, the king received and perhaps even played the D major quartet, for Mozart entered the work in his catalog with the special note, "for His Majesty the King of Prussia," and it is believed that the composer received for the quartet 100 gold pieces and a golden snuff box.
		The quartet's nickname, "The Razor," derives from a story involving the composer and the British publisher John Bland, who was at Esterhazy in 1789, the year after the six quartets were first heard.
		The C Major Quartet, however, is notable for not containing many of these cultural references at least not in the first two movements.

		An American institution, the Juilliard String Quartet has been in existence for more than 55 years and is dedicated to performing traditional compositions, as well as works by more contemporary composers like Bartok and visionary composer Elliott Carter.
		Seeing these artists is always about interacting with an icon, a performer, but being engaged in the reproduction of classical music by a group of the Juilliard Quartet's caliber forces one to be introspective, to examine the music's value and implications in an arena devoid of audience interaction and star factor.
