String Quartet No. 2 (Bartk)

The String Quartet No. 2 by Bla Bartk was written between 1915 and October 1917 in Rkoskeresztr in Hungary. The work is in three movements:
  1. Moderato
  2. Allegro molto capriccioso
  3. Lento
In a letter to Andr Gertier, Bartk described the first movement as being in sonata form, the second as "a kind of rondo" and the third as "difficult to define" but possibly a sort of ternary form. The work is dedicated to the Waldbauer-Kerpely Quartet, and it was they who gave the piece its premiere on March 3, 1918 in Budapest. The work was first published in 1920 by Universal Edition.
