Weddings, wedding quartets and composers

A wedding quartet is really a string quartet whose repertoire is suitable for use at weddings. Many composers have written music specifically for the String Quartet. Some only wrote for the quartet once they had become experienced, considering the string quartet to the be the perfect musical ensemble. A few examples are given below, as illustrations:-  Joseph Jongen (1873-1953; age 79); José Serebrier (1938-still alive 2003; age ca. 65); Sigfrid Karg-Elert (1877-1933; age 55); Jan Zwart (1877-1937; age 59); Roger Quilter (1877-1953; age 75); Jesús Castillo (1877-1946; age 68); Déodat de Séverac (1873-1921; age 47); Reinhold Moritzovich Glière (1874-1956; age 81); Bertha Frensel Wegener-Koopman (1874-1953; age 78); Annie Gosfield (1960-still alive 2003; age ca. 43); Christiaan de Jong (1960-still alive 2003; age ca. 43); Piet Swerts (1960-still alive 2003; age ca. 43); Alla Penkina (1960-still alive 2003; age ca. 43);
