Quartet

Quartet: 2 violins, viola, cello
String quartet is the most popular form of chamber music. It has the richest and most balanced sound and largest repertoire. When comparing quartet to trio, you notice that the trio does not include viola. To a musician the voice of the viola is especially dear as the ideal inner voice supporting and balancing the overall tonal structure. The four musicians form a semicircle, which is visually impressive.
