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 and Parts String Quartet - difficult SKU: HL.49015565 String Qua...(+)
Score and Parts String Quartet - difficult SKU: HL.49015565 String Quartet Score and Parts. Composed by Aribert Reimann. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. String. Classical. Score and parts. Composed 2006. 28 pages. Duration 8'. Schott Music #ED9977. Published by Schott Music (HL.49015565). ISBN 9781423421047. 9.0x12.0x0.079 inches. 'I have always had a great fondness for the works by Schumann', Aribert Reimann once said. There exists a close relationship even beyond the music: As owner of Schumann's medical records from the mental asylum in Endenich, Reimann guarded the secret of the circumstances surrounding Schumann's last weeks and death.When the musical world celebrated Reimann's 70th birthday and commemorated the 150th anniversary of Schumann's death in 2006, Reimann decided to publish the records and comment on them in his book 'Robert Schumann in Endenich' (ED 9870).This book was presented to the public on 5 May 2006 at the Schumann Festival in Dusseldorf. For this occasion, as a musical bow to Schumann, Reimann composed the string quartet Adagio which the Heine Quartet premiered. Adagio is based on both Schumann's Endenich chorales 'Wenn mein Stundlein vorhanden ist' and 'Stark und Mittler, dein sind wir'. $27.95 - See more - Buy online | | |
| String Quartet in A minor, op. 132 String Quartet: 2 violins, viola, cello Barenreiter
String quartet (2V,Va,Vc) SKU: BA.TP00932 Composed by Ludwig van Beethove...(+)
String quartet (2V,Va,Vc) SKU: BA.TP00932 Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Edited by Jonathan Del Mar. This edition: urtext edition. Paperback. Barenreiter Urtext. Study score. Opus 132. Baerenreiter Verlag #TP00932_00. Published by Baerenreiter Verlag (BA.TP00932). ISBN 9790006203130. 22.5 x 16.5 cm inches. Key: A minor. Preface: Donat, Misha. After years of several personal and creative crises, the last two years of Beethoven's life were marked by an irrepressible creative urge that was directed almost exclusively towards the string quartet genre.
Of all these late works, it is the Quartet in A minor op. 132 that most impressively addresses the overcoming of the depression of the past years. The middle of the five movements is aCanzona di ringraziamentoentitled:Holy Song of Thanksgiving of a recovered person to the deity in the Lydian key.
In this movement a slow introduction is followed by the heading:Feeling renewed strength. Due to the middle movement full ofdivine power, this string quartet is certainly one of Beethoven's most emotional compositions.
For this new edition of the Quartet op. 132, Beethoven specialist Jonathan Del Mar consulted the autograph as well as several sets of parts corrected by Beethoven, enabling him to correct countless inconsistencies and unconvincing editorial decisions of previous editions.
