SKU: HL.50490578

Composed by Mieczyslaw Weinberg. String Ensemble. Classical. Softcover. 56 pages. Sikorski #SIK2413. Published by Sikorski (HL.50490578).

UPC: 884088656904. 8.5x11.75 inches.

Composed in 1977. Like the Thirteenth Quartet of his friend Dmitri Shostakovich, Weinberg's work is cast in a single movement of approximately 15 minutes' duration.

“A one-movement work of approximately 15 minutes in length, [the quartet] is in the neoclassical style of mid-century Soviet Russia, where simplicity and accessibility were demanded by the state. The musical language owes much to the middle-period works of Shostakovich...Enthusiasts of String Quartet No. 13 will be pleased to know that the prolific Weinberg composed 16 others that are still awaiting greater recognition.”--Strings magazine.
