According to this 2022 article:

- They perform Haydn with a kind of reverent confusion, as if they know his melodies are going to zigzag and stutter, and are feeling nervous about it.. He’s supposed to be serene, so they can’t really explain to you all the ways he’s not. They play Mozart like they’re not even in the room; each composition sort of plays itself, out of pity for the listener. The brilliance of Mozart doesn’t just disappear; instead, it cries out, like a living person held for ransom in a soundproof cell. Beethoven, after Emerson assimilation, is primarily ruined by their tears of sordid awe; the way these opportunists steal up on Beethoven’s least accessible quartets, nudging each other in mutual incomprehension, you’d think they were violating parole.
