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: Exciting.
gollark: The best I can do is just not setting cookies except for preference cookies with a very clear format, probably adding a "do not harvest this data" option, and opensourcing it (although of course I can run stuff different to the publicly viewable copy, for evil).
