Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901)

String Quartet E minor

4th Movement (Scherzo. Fuga)

Melos Quartet

Composed in Naples in 1873 as a personal amusement (and never intended for publication) while waiting for Aida to be staged. This is Verdi's only chamber music. It really ought to be heard more often, but is completely overshadowed by his operatic output! Needless to say!!

Enjoy!
