Wow thanks! I love Dohnanyi but I didn't know this opus... It's really excellent!

Though there are echos of Brahms' c minor quartet and earlier quartets by Zemlinsky and Schoenberg, this is a beautiful and expertly written quartet.

Thank you.

The molto adagio is clearly inspired by schubert cello quintet : --> both have "A" section in E major that leads with a surprising modulation to the turbulent central section in F minor, with cello triplets

First 7 bars put me in mind of a news program theme (aside from instruments being used that is)
