String Quartet No. 12 Op. 127 / String Quartet No. 14 Op. 131

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Ehnes Quartet

String Quartet No. 12, Op. 127 and String Quartet No. 14, Op. 131 are late string quartets by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1825 and 1826. The works belong to late-period chamber music and use dense counterpoint, expanded harmonic language, unconventional formal designs and intense expressive contrasts, and they come from the final years of Beethoven's career when his music was more concentrated and inward-looking.
