I do not think there is a 'complete works for string quartet' set out, but
(strangely enough) the Bridge Str Qt seems to have recorded the ones called
"Quartets for Strings". [Meridian 84311 & 84369].
And I don't see the Allegri Qt's Bridge on CD at all, sorry.
He certainly wrote much music for string quartet. Certainly an 'integral
des oeuvres pour quatour des cordes' would be a great project for any
adventurous ensemble & label [excuse my French--is not so good].
