String Quartet (Blumenfeld)

Felix Blumenfeld's String Quartet in F major, Op. 26, is the composer's only work for the medium. Published in 1898, the quartet was dedicated to music publisher Mitrofan Belyayev.

Structure

The work is structured in four movements:

  1. Allegro - Poco più tranquillo - Tempo I - Allegro molto
  2. Presto - Molto meno mosso - Tempo del Scherzo (Presto) - Più mosso
  3. Andantino - Poco più mosso - Largamente
  4. Finale: Allegro molto - Un poco più tranquillo - Più mosso - Tempo I (Tranquillo) - Più tranquillo - Più mosso - Coda: Molto più mosso - Prestissimo

The first commercial recording of the quartet by the Odessa quartet was released by Profil in 2015.[1]
