String Quartets Op. 18, Nos. 4-6

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Eybler Quartet

String Quartets Op. 18, Nos. 4-6 is a set of three early string quartets by Ludwig van Beethoven, published in 1801. The music is in the Classical style with emerging Romantic harmonies and focused motivic development for two violins, viola and cello, and it traces Beethoven's move from his early influences toward a more personal chamber-music voice.
