String Quartet in D flat, Op. 15 played by the Stratton String Quartet Dohnanyi, who represents the conservative element at its best in Hungarian music, has written three string quartets, the second of which, Op. 15, in D flat, was published in 1907. It reveals, says Tovey,
' the full power of Dohnanyi's art, and, amongst other things, the attainment of an artistic fusion of what may be called Wagnerian or symphonic-poem movement with the essentials of sonata style '.
