Schumann, Robert - Three Quartets, Op 41 Edited by Herrmann Peters Edition
Following the so-called ?Year of Song? (1840) during which Schumann poured out almost 140 of his finest Lieder, the newly-married composer turned to weightier forms. In 1842 Schumann composed the Three String Quartets Op. 41, the Piano Quintet Op. 44 and the Piano Quartet Op. 47, a veritable ?Year of Chamber Music?. Influenced by the late quartets of Beethoven and the quartets of Haydn and Mozart, Schumann?s string quartets are masterpieces in their own right, filled with musical inventiveness, youthful exuberance and intense poetic feeling.
This edition contains parts for two violins, viola, and cello. Published by Edition Peters.
