String Quartet No. 19 (Spohr)

Louis Spohr's String Quartet No. 19 ("Quatuor brillant") in A major, Op. 68, was composed by Spohr in 1823.[1][2] Like a concerto, the work is designed to display a soloist's skills, but in a more intimate setting than the concert hall.

Movements

This quartet is in three movement form:[3]

  1. Allegro moderato
  2. Larghetto
  3. Rondo: Allegretto
gollark: Approval voting: you can check multiple options on the ballot. The candidate/thing/whatever with the most votes wins.
gollark: No.
gollark: Than first past the post.
gollark: Approval voting and score voting are... less bad?
gollark: <@519457828126326799> The problem with a three party system is that basically all countries use awful voting systems.
