About a poor quartet, or G. Verdi as the symphonist
Abstract
In the article for the first time in the Russian musical science string quartet J. Verdi becomes a subject of study. As a hypothesis, the author proposes to investigate the paradox of performing neglect and even ignoring this work in the twentieth century. Reconstructing the musical-historical context of the establishment of the Quartet, using comparative-historical method of analysis of the musical text, the author shows a different, non-classical model of the genre of the quartet, which is guided in this work by Verdi. This «theater and symphony» model has led to active transcriptions for string quartet ensembles and orchestras, and as such has won the Audience sympathy in the XXI century.
