String Quartet No. 10 (Schubert)
Franz Schubert composed his String Quartet No. 10 ( D. 87) in E-flat major in 1813. Historical background Musicologist Otto Erich Deutsch records that the youthful work (Schubert was sixteen years old at the time) was first performed privately in the Schubert household, by members of the family. Perhaps in part for this reason, this composition has acquired the nickname of the ''"Haushaltung"'' (Household) Quartet. Author Melvin Berger suggests that the quartet’s nickname has stuck because the piece "is so well suited for home performance,” calling it “technically … quite undemanding” to accommodate the “limited performing abilities” of amateur musicians.Berger, Melvin. ''Guide to Chamber Music,'' 3rd Edition. Mineola, New York: Dover Books, 2001; p. 384. The quartet was published only posthumously, in 1830, as Op. 125 No. 1.

Homotonal
''Homotonal'' (same-tonality) is a technical musical term pertaining to the tonal structure of multi-movement compositions. It was introduced into musicology by Hans Keller. According to Keller's definition and usage, a multi-movement composition is 'homotonal' if all of its movements have the same tonic (keynote). 'Homotonality' is by no means uncommon in compositions of the Baroque era: many Baroque multi-movement works based on dance-forms manifest the same tonic—and even the same ''mode'' (major or minor) – throughout. Thus, for example, J.S. Bach's solo violin partita BWV 1004 is homotonal '' ll movements in D minor', as is his solo flute partita BWV 1013 '' ll movements in A minor'. Similarly, Vivaldi's sonata for oboe and continuo RV53 (n.d.) is homotonal '' ll movements in C minor'. Homotonality is even encountered in some Baroque concertos: examples include Vivaldi's Cello Concertos RV401 (n.d.) '' ll movements in C minor' and RV416 (n.d.) '' ll movements in G minor', ...
