The scores that Guillaume Lekeu devoted to the string quartet almost all date from the year 1887, when he was still self-taught as a composer. Rather
than an audacious desire to pit himself against a genre reputed to be the most difficult of all (he never subsequently returned to it), one should no doubt see in this above all a homage paid from his unconditional admiration for Beethoven, something he kept intact until the end of his short life.
