Beethoven String Quartet Op. 18 No. 3
Janáček String Quartet No. 1 (‘Kreutzer Sonata’)
Schubert String Quartet in G, D. 887

Schubert’s quartet in G is on a superhuman scale. Its titanic struggle between major and minor, and hope and despair create awe-inspiring music. In comparison the first of Janáček’s two quartets is brief. But with his unique tonality and idiom, and the introduction of ‘stream of consciousness’ music, he also sparked a musical revolution.
