Richard Ayres' Three Small Pieces for String Quartet each have distinct characters that illustrate the composer's vivid imagination and skill for combining energetic, touching and sometimes wild music. The first piece is a short tribute to the Romanian singer Maria Tanase, a long forgotten performer who was once a star in her country. The second is a rough, fast and folk-like section in 11/16 time and the third, subtitled 'Countess Eva von Spendu (on a horse) gallops through the forest (pausing four times to contemplate natural splendour)', contains (in the words of the composer) 'hunting gallops, a Feldmanesque 19 bar blues, some devilish fiddling, moments of repose and contemplation, and a lyrical finale.'.

This is the Full Score for Eleanor's Piece , composed by Hugh Wood for two string quartets. This beautiful work lasts around 3 minutes. Born in Lancashire and enjoying a thoroughly musical upbringing, Hugh Wood graduated from Oxford after studying History and decided that composition was his true calling. His works are characterised by divine expressionism and subtle lyricism, with Eleanor's Wood being no exception.

The composer writes: These three pieces are based on movements from my Mass of the Apocalypse, commissioned for the 300th anniversary of St James' Church, Piccadilly and recorded by the St James' Singers/Ivor Bolton. They are dedicated to Peter Sheppard Sk''rved and the Kreutzer Quartet in gratitude for their outstanding CD of my chamber music released early in 2020. They gave the first performance of the Three Pieces, which was filmed and streamed in November 2020, but the live premiere was given by the Gildas Quartet in the William Alwyn Festival at Southwold Church on 8 October 2021..
