String quartet (P/ST) - difficult

SKU: HL.49033268

Composed by Joerg Widmann. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Edition Schott. Score and parts. Composed 1997. 62 pages. Duration 14'. Schott Music #ED 9747. Published by Schott Music (HL.49033268).

The five strings quartets by Jorg Widmann are compact studies, like those of his teacher Wolfgang Rihm. Performed individually, the focus is on the respective central technical and aesthetic idea. Performed as a cycle, however, they get closer to the well-known classical multi-movement form.The theme of the first string quartet is the quintessential beginning: in an introduction, it takes some time for the strained sounds to turn into harmonics. Then it is the viola, the 'poor cousin' in the string quartet literature, which takes up and defines the musical work. The workconcludes with a demanding eight-part double-stopping polyphony of all instruments.

Irish composer Kevin Volans' work has gained international acclaim over the years. Drawing on a combination of European and African compositional techniques, his music displays a unique charm. Volans' distinctive sound is heavily in demand, and since the mid-1980s his work has been performed regularly at such venues as the Pompidou Centre, the Royal Albert Hall and the Lincoln Center in New York. This work for string quartet was commissioned by the Shobana Jeyasingh Dance Company, and was first performed on the 16th December 1990 at the Almeida Theatre, London, by the Smith Quartet.

String quartet

SKU: FG.042-07924-9

Composed by Eero Hameenniemi. Score. Published by Fennica Gehrman (FG.042-07924-9).

ISBN 979-0-042-07924-9.

Hameenniemi's quartet (1989) is in four independent movements. Although harmonic and melodic elements bind the movements together, each one is infused with its own internal energy, and the composer has interposed slow contrasting material into the faster and livelier parts. The multiple layers of psychological meaning in this work make it a demanding and worthwhile challenge.
