It seems that it is a misleading title as the real op. 41 corresponds to 2 Lieder für vier Männerstimmen. It should be the op. 6, effectively the Piano Quartet in E-flat major.

Especially if it's volume 3 of a series that contained the 3rd? recording of his 3rd piano quartet and the first recording of his 2nd piano quartet, iirc?

It seems that Audax have got this wrong themselves:

The Piano Quartet in E flat is indeed Op.6. Thread title duly amended.

I pointed this out to Audax who thanked me and said that, after checking, they found the error was on their website, but not on the physical product.
