The Quartet in G Minor Op. 73 No. 3 is a chamber music work for bassoon and string trio (violin, viola, and cello) by French composer François Devienne (1759–1803). Published in 1798, it is the final piece in his set of three quartets for this instrumentation.

I. Allegro con espressione: A dramatic opening movement in G minor.

II. Adagio non troppo: A lyrical slow movement.

III. Rondo (Allegretto poco moderato): A final movement in rondo form.

The “Trois Quatuors Pour Basson, Violon, Alto et Basse, op. 73”, published by Erard (Paris) in 1798, were dedicated to Devienne’s friend, Garnier of Lyon. This may have been François Joseph Garnier (1755-1825), a noted French oboist and flautist, also a composer of solo and wind chamber music and a widely-used method for oboe.

These quartets are somewhat superior to most of those contemporaneous works written for a wind instrument and strings. Although the bassoon part is a brilliant one, each of the string voices enjoys a high degree of independence.
