Allegro (from String Quartet No. 2)—

Maddalena Lombardini Sirmen learned
violin at an orphanage for girls, even

Tartini. By 1767, Maddelena was touring
with her husband, renowned violinist
Ludovico Sirmen. As talented a composer
as performer, Maddelena is thought to
have been the first woman to compose
string quartets. This charming Allegro from

to accessible G major while retaining the
spirit and energy of the original work.

turbulent and a sense of unrest creeps in as
the music builds to climactic moments.
