String Quartet (Fitzenhagen)

Wilhelm Fitzenhagen's String Quartet in D minor, Op. 23, is the composer's only work for the medium. It was published in 1879 by Breitkopf & Härtel.[1]

Structure

The work is structured in four movements:

  1. Adagio - Allegro moderato
  2. Andante
  3. Allegro
  4. Finale: Larghetto - Allegro energico

To date the quartet, which won a prize offered by the St Petersberg Chamber Musical Union,[2] has not been recorded commercially.

gollark: But I think it's *also* rather bad, given stuff like the terrible module system, rampant undefined behaviour, and general inexpressiveness.
gollark: I'm not sure it's *that* simple given various bits of weirdness like type declaration syntax and the separate preprocessor/compiler thing.
gollark: C is actually bad, however.
gollark: Regexes, splitting at equals signs or some kind of state machine maybe.
gollark: I might be somewhat annoyed about someone not paying me a cut of that, except I didn't even invent the algorithm.
