A seven-movement example of this type of work by this composer ends with a Picardy third after touching on six distinct key areas. The finale of that example of these works unusually quotes directly from the fugue in its first movement, which Richard Wagner called "the most melancholy sentiment ever expressed in music". They include the six collected in their composer's Opus 18, as well as a more experimental one referred to as "Serioso". The final movement of the last of these is labeled "The Difficult Resolution" and contains the score markings (*) "Must it be? It must be!" Another of these works features alternating pizzicato sections in the first movement, giving it the nickname "Harp", while the fourteenth of them prompted Schubert to ask "After this, what is left for us to write?" The ninth one, as well as two which each include a "thème russe", were written for Count Andreas Rasumovsky. For 10 points, identify these compositions for a certain ensemble that also include the Grosse Fuge, created by the composer of the Eroica symphony.
