Late String Quartets

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Brodsky Quartet

The Late String Quartets are a set of late-period string quartets by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in the mid-1820s and published in the late 1820s. They are chamber works that use advanced harmonic language and dense counterpoint, have extended forms and abrupt contrasts, and are the final string quartets Beethoven wrote near the end of his life.
