Im Original

Quartet in C Minor is in four movements with a total duration of about 25 minutes. The opening Allegro is Dvorák-ish in its lyricism, though there is a darker, more brooding atmosphere towards the close. It is tempting to detect a hint of folk-song in the theme of the Andantino, played by the Viola, but that may be stretching hindsight too far. The movement has a wistful melancholy that carries over into the following Intermezzo, a song-like episode containing some of the most virtuosic writing in the work. The last movement is a theme and six variations with a fugal ending. The theme is ballad-like with a suggestion of 18th-century elegance. Modality creeps into the second Adagio variation and there is rhythmic exhilaration in the succeeding Presto. What can be admired in this attractive quartet is its conciseness. This String Quartet was his first major composition of any kind.

Die Bewegung hat einen wehmütigen Melancholie, die auf das folgende Intermezzo, ein Lied wie-Episode enthält einige der virtuosen schriftlich in der Arbeit trägt. Der letzte Satz ist ein Thema und sechs Variationen mit einer Fugen Ende. Das Thema ist balladesken mit einem Vorschlag der Eleganz des 18. Jahrhunderts. Modalität schleicht sich in der zweiten Variation Adagio und es gibt rhythmische Heiterkeit in der nachfolgenden Presto. Was kann in diesem attraktiven Quartett zu bewundern ist seine Prägnanz. Das Streichquartett war seine erste große Komposition jeglicher Art.
