Description

String Quartet in B-flat major, Op. 130
Grand Fugue, Op. 133

Set of Parts

This edition concludes Henle's Urtext series of the complete Beethoven string quartets.

The ending of this highly expressive work, at whose centre is the famous Cavatina, was originally the Grand Fugue. Yet a contemporary critic felt that this was unintelligible. At the urging of the publisher, Beethoven replaced it with a newly composed finale and published the Grosse Fugue with a new opus number. Ever since, it has often been performed separately.

In order to respect the desire of modern ensembles to be able to perform the Quartet, Op. 130 in Beethoven's original version, Henle has included the Grand Fugue in this edition.
