Synopsis

Product Description
Brahms had passed the age of forty before he finally deemed a string quartet worth of appearing in his catalogue, as op. 51. Thus he joined those composers who, like Mendelssohn, Schumann and Dvorak, had succeeded in freeing themselves from the heritage of Beethoven in this genre. The work is extremely demanding for its performers, as is the Piano Quintet, op. 34.
