Is that op.a110 or opera 110 - for three works - for there are three quartets here (pp.1, 25, 40 of the PDF for the opening pages of each of them; in as above D minor, G minor, D major) with the opus number 110 ? (opera, plural of opus, shortened to op'a, in a manuscript where one does abbreviate things!...) taking a close look I cannot tell... - Schissel (have tried my hand at doing some typesetting here, first draft of cello part of quartet 3 sort of done, but these are not easy to read, are they...)
These are not Mascia's first string quartets; his opus 64 quartets have also been scanned in, for instance.
