Recorded by Swedish rock band Europe Final Countdown has remained one of the classic rock tunes of all time. This international number 1 chart hit has been expertly arranged for String Quartet by Anthony Grƶger. Let the Countdown begin!

Described by its composer as Ć¢Ā€Ā˜a fantasiaĆ¢Ā€Ā™ Carl VineĆ¢Ā€Ā™s dramatic String Quartet No.5 (2007) contains six clear sections but like much of his music is cast in one continuous movement. There is some repetition and development of material throughout the 22-minute work (which has been recorded by the Goldner String Quartet on ABC Classics) but this is less important to its structure than the vivid musical contrasts which delineate its formal arc.
