| Smetana: String Quartets No.1 ("From My Life") & No. 2$20 Minimum Order per Publisher |
Type: Bookby - Bedrich Smetana  Features Page
Two frequently performed works, remarkable for their portrait-like effects. The String Quartet No. 1 in E Minor, a musical recollection of the composer's youth, paints a picture of ambition and love, with a hint of future difficulties. String Quartet No. 2 in D Minor, written after the composer had gone deaf, is less sanguine, with darker themes exerting an emotional pull on the listener. Reproduced from authoritative early editions.
