String Quartet No. 4 in C minor, Stiles 1.2.3.3 SQ4,[1] was completed by Alfred Hill on 25 July 1916 in Neutral Bay, Sydney (indicated in the manuscript).[2] It is dedicated to Henri Verbrugghen (the first director of the new-founded New South Wales State Conservatorium) and his Verbrugghen String Quartet.[2] It is Hill's first non-program string quartet. The first two movements were transcribed for orchestra in 1955 forming the basis of the Symphony No. 4 "The Pursuit of Happiness" in which this music turns to have a program.[3][2]
