String Quartet - difficult SKU: HL.49008206 Score and Parts. Composed by Peteris Vasks. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Edition Schott. Classical. Score and Parts. Composed 1977/1997. 86 pages. Duration 15'. Schott Music #ED 8899. Published by Schott Music (HL.49008206). ISBN 9790001124003. UPC: 073999655742. 9.0x12.0x0.34 inches. With serious string players this Latvian composer has long been recognized because of his sonorous tonal concepts and his modal, occasionally aleatoric idiom. Works like 'Cantabile per Archi' or 'Musica dolorosa' are already quite well-known, but newer pieces like the violin concerto with string orchestra 'Fernes Licht', commissioned by Gidon Kremer for his Kremerata Baltica, are also gaining wide international exposure. The genre of the string quartet is well represented in Vasks' output. The 2nd string quartet 'Summer Tunes' (ED 8512) has been published for some time and the 3rd was premiered by the Kronos Quartet who were so enthused that they commissioned a 4th quartet. In 1996, prompted by a complete recording of all his string quartets by the Miami String Quartet for Conifer Records Vasks totally revised his early 1st string quartet 1996, it is here presented for the first time in a printed edition. $51.00 - See more - Buy online | | | |

String Quartet SKU: BR.PB-5708 Urtext. Composed by Joachim Raff. Edited by Stefan Konig. Chamber music; Softbound. Partitur-Bibliothek (Score Library). Romantic period. Study Score. Breitkopf and Haertel #PB 5708. Published by Breitkopf and Haertel (BR.PB-5708). ISBN 9790004216453. 6.5 x 9 inches. When his musical triad op. 192 was created in the winter of 1873/74, Raff was one of Germany's most successful composers and the central artistic authority in the Hessian spa, royal residence and imperial city of Wiesbaden. With op. 192, Raff cultivated his reputation as an erudite composer who was a master of contrapuntal forms. By the time the string quartets were composed, he had already established himself as one of the most prolific and versatile suite composers of the 19th century, as is evident here in the various suite conceptions: Opus 192 No. 1 (in C minor), as Suite in the ancient style, has with Baroque labels stylized dance movements follow one another. Die schone Mullerin [The Fair Maid of the Mill] op. 192 No. 2 (in D major), on the other hand, interprets the suite as a sequence of chapters in a musical narrative and thus becomes probably the first tone poem in string quartet scoring. In the third quartet (in C major), of which Raff the artist was proudest, other genre designations mix in among the dance movements, and with its free succession of different movement types, not usual for a sonata, it preserves structural openness. In collaboration with the Joachim-Raff-Archiv Lachen (CH)
Some eighteen years elapsed between Raff's first counted String Quartet op. 77 and his Quartets Nos. 6-8 op. 192, combined as one work. As such, Raff parted with the weighty single opus in quartet composition - without, however, sacrificing musical quality. $55.95 - See more - Buy onlinePre-shipment lead time: 3 to 4 weeks | | | |

Gran Torso, for string quartet, was composed in 1971 and revised in 1978. It belongs to a series of works, including Air, Kontrakadenz, Pression and Klangschatten, whose concept of material attempts to free itself from convention. That is, instead of using the sound itself as a point of departure, structural and formal hierarchies are derived from the mechanical and physical conditions present during the process of sound production. It is clear that such a radical break with tradition is not easily achieved: the instrument, the given means, the resonating body itself (as the embodiment of convention) all work against such attempts (with the extended performance techniques representing only the tip of the iceberg of deep-seated contradictions where the bourgeois artist is concerned). Implicit in such a challenge, however, is a claim to aesthetic pregnance: an offer, if one would have it, of uncomprosing beauty.(Helmut Lachenmann, 1978)CDs/LPs:Berner StreichquartettCD col legno 0647 277Berner StreichquartettLP col legno 5504Societa Cameristica ItalianaLP ABT ERZ 1003Arditti String QuartetCD KAIROS, 0012662KAIstadler quartettCD NEOS 10806The JACK QuartetCD mode 267Stadler Quartett, Rg.

Score String Quartet SKU: HL.49045762 String Quartet Score. Composed by Shin-Ichiro Ikebe. String Ensemble. Classical. Softcover. 28 pages. Duration 600 seconds. Zen-On #ZN590228. Published by Zen-On (HL.49045762). ISBN 9784115902282. 8.25x11.75x0.1 inches. This is the eleventh work in my chamber music series, STRATA, and my fourth string quartet following STRATA I, V, and IX. This series started in 1988 based on the idea of regarding registers as strata (the plural form of stratum), from which the title in derived. While I continue to write pieces, however, the initial concept changed in various aspects. This time, I returned to the original idea To put it simply, I restarted from STRATA I. I used the same instruments and stared at strara created by the four string parts. That became the act of composing STRATA XI. The work doesn't have 'development' in the general sense but represents a panorama of strata. It consists of four movements (fast-slow-fast-slow). In fact, before writing the STRATA series, I wrote a long string quartet when I was a student, but I didn't include it in my list of works. Anyway, the thought of writing string quartet has never disappeared from me. It alays weighs heavily on my mind. Shin-Ichiro Ikebe.
