String quartet piece identification?
  • Hi, I’ve extracted 3 strings pieces from our parish Midnight Mass celebration that I’m unsure of what they were. I’m attaching each of them in mp3 files. I’m wondering if anybody here might know what they are. They sound, for the most part, like baroque music or some other similar era of classical music. Thanks for any help or assistance you can give.

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

  • Thanks all for your responses! Now I can properly label the recordings and have them in my repertoire.
