How great the chamber music that comes from masters of vocal writing!-Schumann, Schubert, Verdi, etc. etc. You are guaranteed lyricism, melody, fine harmonic writing, and a wonderful mastery of colour!

Not the best performance of this piece, meaning there are better ones. Still fantastic.

I hadn't heard much of Verdi's work until I heard this, but this is incredible! I wish he had written more chamber music like this, he was brilliant at it.

@swordyboyakon I didn't know there was more than one version either, but this is definitely different than the one usually played in concerts and recorded more often... interesting insight into the structure of the piece to compare the two! And I love the performance...

@hsmfan1996 Yes is in sonata allegro form. Exposition in the Tonic, the second theme ends in the relative major, then a development, recap back to tonic with the second theme recap in the Tonic's parallel Major and a coda back to the tonic.

Just beautiful music.

@swordyboyakon Hi sorry I've only just got your other messages. It is the Melos Quartet. The CD also has a recording of the Sibelius Quartet.
