Have been waiting for a scored video from *someone* of this since 2020, but the score simply wasnt on IMSLP I understand - so happy to see it uploaded!

Es ist meine erste Gelegenheit, dieses spätromantische Quartett anzuhören. Erstaunlich fein komponiert und wunderschön interpretiert in verschiedenen Tempi mit klarem Klang des Klaviers, seidigem Ton der Violine, mildem Ton der Bratsche und tiefem Ton des Violoncellos. Der zweite Satz klingt besonders schön und echt beruhigend. Im Kontrast klingt der dritte Satz echt lebhaft und auch inspirierend. Die intime und perfekt entsprechende Miteinanderwirkung zwischen den vier Virtuosen ist wahrhaft bewundernswert. Alles ist wunderbar!

Her string quartet is very nice as well. She was the first female cathedral organist in the world I believe.

This is an incredible find Bartje! The themes are very memorable and the counterpoint and arrangement is flawless. Easily on the same tier as quartets by Brahms, Schumann, Mahler, etc. in my opinion. Hearing pieces like these makes me wonder how many incredible female composers will have been forgotten to time because of the discrimination present at the time

and note the date: very contemporary with Brahms and Schmann
