String Quartets, op. 32 nos. 3-6

Album by Luigi Boccherini & Quartetto Borciani

String Quartets, Op. 32 Nos. 3-6 are a set of string quartets by Italian composer Luigi Boccherini, published circa 1780. They exemplify Classical-era chamber music with elegant melodic lines, balanced conversational writing among the instruments and a prominent role for the cello that reflects Boccherini's virtuosity, situating the works within his mature output and the late-18th-century development of the string quartet repertoire.
