Synopsis

Product Description
Four measures on this new recording will strike string quartet fans as odd. It was with these measures that Schumann, in June 1842, linked the quartets known today as his Opus 41, Nos. 1 and 2, in the version originally intended to form one single immense work of almost Beethovian dimensions. The effect of this originally intended version of the Quartets Op. 41 is enormous--one can hear connections between the two individual quartets, and their symmetrical design is astonishing. A well-known work by Schumann becomes an entirely new experience through the addition of only four measures!
