鈥淭he piece was originally written for an instrument that is now extinct.

鈥淚t was a sort of guitar with six strings, tuned like the guitar, and  was bowed, somewhat like a cello.

鈥淪chubert鈥檚 work is now mainly played by violists and cellists and music editors had to make adjustments and alterations to the score in order to make it playable on these instruments.鈥
