String Quartets op. 41

Album by Robert Schumann & Quatuor Ysaÿe

String Quartets, Op. 41 is a set of three string quartets by German composer Robert Schumann, published in 1842. Rooted in Romantic chamber music, they combine lyrical lines with dense harmonic and contrapuntal writing, and they were written during a phase in 1842 when Schumann concentrated on chamber forms after earlier piano and vocal work.
