Abstract
The primary purpose of the transcription is to contribute new and fresh material to the ever expanding body of string quartet literature. A new work by a composer of Prokofieff's stature will be a creditable addition to the chamber music repertoire. The purpose of the accompanying text is threefold: (1) to give a brief history of Serge Prokofieff, (2) to give a brief history of the string quartet, and (3) to examine the methods chosen by the writer to transcribe the sonata tor string quartet.
