String Quartet No. 15 in A Minor, Op. 132

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Juilliard String Quartet

String Quartet No. 15 in A minor, Op. 132 is a string quartet by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1825–1826. The work, part of Beethoven's late quartets, is characterised by complex contrapuntal writing, dramatic contrasts of mood and tempo, and an expansive slow movement that reflects the introspective and experimental nature of his late style.
