Oct. 13, 7:30 p.m.; 92y.org; available for one week.

The 92nd Street Y is opening an enticing season of livestreams with a concert by this exciting quartet [Brentano String Quartet]. On paper, a program offering works by Haydn and Mendelssohn might not seem so daring. But these superb players have chosen rarer fare, including Haydn’s String Quartet in D (Op. 17, No. 6); four short pieces by Mendelssohn; and that composer’s String Quintet in B-flat, a restless score with a mournful slow movement and hurtling finale. (The violist Hsin-Yun Huang joins for it.)
