An excerpt from the second movement of Dmitri Shostakovich's 14th string quartet (played by the Borodin Quartet).
In her biography of the composer, Laurel Fay connects this work with Shostakovich's arrangement of Gaetano Braga's "Angel's Serenade", a sketch for an unrealized opera on Chekhov's "The Black Monk".
