Ludwig van Beethoven: String Quartet A Minor Op.132: String Quartet: Score

String Quartet in a minor op. 132-The heart of Beethoven s Quartet op.132 is the Holy song of thanksgiving in which Beethoven takes up old counterpoint techniques and Gregorian simplicity. In this unusuallybeautiful and well preserved manuscript Beethoven generously makes the most of the space on its pages. The lavish four colour printing allows the composer s occasionally unconventional manner of notation to come to life. Itpermits a unique insight into the creative process which continued after it had been written down in the form of multiple additions and changes. The edition is rounded off with a preface by the pianist András Schiff withwhose generous support this valuable facsimile was made possible.
