In the string quartet Op. 130 is of the pieces that was done by Beethoven. This was composed at a time that Beethoven was preparing for his exit from the music environment. However his works live on and they are some of the most acclaimed in the industry. At the time of the formulation Beethoven did not necessarily separate the work into six, rather it was one block of the performance. They have since become the focal point of the traditional repertoire.
Of importance is the third of the quartets, relative to the order in which Beethoven had composed them. This is a String Quartet that is largely in the B Flat and is referred to as the Op. 130. It is important to note that the finale does not sit well with the rest of the quarter. This is an aspect that Beethoven and even the producer had come to agree upon. This is a well-established elite traditional piece that is associated with form, expression and style. This is a representation of a technical facility, beauty surface and one that is rich in emotion. Like the traditional pieces done by Mozart and Haydn, this is one that is filled with emotion and beauty marking the coming of age and the last draw for the artiste. It is for this reason that the piece is intense and effective at getting the audience to relate with the theme of the artiste as they departed from the stage and performances.

This is a crucial part of the piece and one that defines the themes. What is interesting is the way the piece plays around with the undulating continuity from the two note figure within the introduction and this connotes only the punctuation and then the closing. The repeated note motive is one that is used to create the undulating pitch in the music and further creates the element of subverting the normal music grammar. The most important part of the analysis of the pieces shows that there is an element of two pitches are related to the dominant to tonic this is with reference to the strongest cadential formula within the western music. Instead of having the dominant fall to the tonic associated with a sense of finality, Beethoven chooses a different approach, by lifting the same upwards and taking away the element of harmony that most of the audience have come to expect from such pieces. There is the introduction of a sudden rush to the piece that gives a rather undulated pitch. Thi...
