String Quartets

Album by Maurice Ravel & Claude Debussy & Orford String Quartet

String Quartet in F major is a string quartet by French composer Maurice Ravel, composed in 1903. The work melds impressionist harmonies with classical quartet forms, featuring delicate textures, modal inflections and inventive uses of timbre and rhythm, and it occupies an early mature place in Ravel's chamber output that contributed to developments in French chamber music in the early 20th century.
