Tobias Matthay Scores - Quartet in one Movement Op. 20 - Sheet Music for Piano Violin Viola and Cello

This is the complete musical score for Tobias Matthay's Op. 6, a quartet in one movement originally intended for violin, viola, violoncello, and pianoforte. Clearly presented with ample space for notes and annotations, this version is ideal for both students and seasoned players alike. This piece was composed in 1882 and later revised in 1905. Highly Recommended for lovers of the piano or pianoforte. Tobias Augustus Matthay (1858 - 1945) was an English pianist, composer, and teacher. He was taught composition while at the Royal Academy of Music by Arthur Sullivan and Sir William Sterndale Bennett, and he was instructed in the piano by William Dorrell and Walter Macfarren. Other notable works by this author include: "The Act Of Touch In All Its Diversity: An Analysis And Synthesis Of Pianoforte Tone Production" (1903), "The First Principles of Pianoforte Playing (1905)" and "Relaxation Studies" (1908). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
