Description
Alexander Borodin's (1834-1887) String Quartet No. 2 was composed during the summer of 1881, possibly at the country home of his composer friend, Nikolay Lodizhensky, and was dedicated to Borodin's wife, Katharina. The third movement is the popular "Nocturne". The integrity of the phrasing and articulation of the urtext edition has been respected in this string orchestra version, arranged by Lucas Drew.
