Beethoven's Opus 59, Number 2 is the first of three quartets written for a commission by Prince Andreas Razumovsky, who was Russian Ambassador to Vienna at the time. The work comes just six years after the last of Beethoven's early quartets, yet shows a significant difference in style - and in length, with performance times of over 40 minutes common for the quartet. This edition is a Pocket Score, designed for ease of use in rehearsals or in studying the work. Its compact size allows for easy transport in your case.
