The String Quartet, Op. 3, by Alban Berg was composed in 1910. It was not published until 1920.[1]
The two-movement string quartet is among Berg's most original compositions. Reminiscents of Schoenberg's F♯ minor quartet, the sound owes more to Romanticism than to contemporary composers like Webern.[2][3][4] It was probably the first extended composition consistently based on symmetrical pitch relations.[5]
Along with the composer's Piano Sonata, it received its premiere on 24 April 1911[6][7] at the Vienna Musikverein.
