This is a set of parts to Yoon Jae Lee's arrangement of the Adagio from Beethoven’s Pathétique sonata for string quartet. The full score is available separately.
The 2nd movement of Beethoven’s Pathétique sonata is very popular with many pianists and this new arrangement makes it accessible for string quartet. Suitable for players of all levels from intermediate to advanced, it is perfect for use in weddings, parties or even as an encore to a concert program. Beethoven made his own string quartet arrangement of the next sonata No. 9 in E Major (Op. 14, No. 1) and in doing so, transposed the work up a half step to F Major. This arrangement follows suit by also transposing the movement up to the more string friendly key of A Major. Unlike many other arrangements already in existence, this arrangement emulates his early string quartet writing style seen in his own Op. 14, No. 1 arrangement as well as the Op. 18 string quartets.
