註釋

Franz Alexander Pössinger (1766–1827) was a highly respected Viennese violinist, composer, and arranger who spent the majority of his life working for the opera orchestra of the Nationaltheater and later the Hoftheaterorchester. Among Pössinger’s yet-unstudied chamber music are four sets of string quartets. Despite forming a large part of his oeuvre, studies, editions, and recordings of his quartets have been notably lacking. This new edition of Pössinger’s three opus 8 quartets (in C minor, F major, and A major) aims to raise awareness of the composer’s work, which is often of a high standard: indeed, a contemporary review of the opus 8 quartets compared them favorably to the quartets of Mozart, Haydn, and Andreas Romberg. Moreover, Pössinger’s quartets reflect the complex and multifaceted nature of chamber music in Vienna during the age of Beethoven.
