Programme Note

String Quartet No. 11 in D Minor was written in 1935, immediately after the String Quartet in E minor, subsequently re-adapted as the Symphony no. 7 in E minor. The String Quartet No. 11 in D Minor has come to enjoy a greater frequency in performances and recordings than other quartets in the series. At the time of its publication, the work had become popularised through its many performances through its many performances and recording by the Queensland State String Quartet.
