Publisher Desc.  George Gershwin's "Preludes for Piano" of 1926 is probably his best-known work for solo piano. Of the 3 preludes in this set, the second one is the most popular and most often heard. This arrangement for student string quartet is transposed up a semitone from the original C# minor/F# major to the more student-friendly D minor/G major. It gives young string players an opportunity to enjoy learning some classic Gershwin. Grade 3 - Duration 3:00
