All In One for
3 String Quartets was
composed by Pelle
Gudmundsen-Holmgreen
in 2013 (String Quartet
No.12,13 and 14 played
simultaneously).
Gudmundsen
-Holmgreen has written a
collection of three new
string quartets: String
Quartet no. 12,
‘Each in
Each’; String
Quartet no. 13,
‘Mutual
Ordering’, and
String Quartet no. 14,
‘Well-Tuned
Sounds’. Each
quartet can be played on
its own; they can also
played simultaneously in
any combination. When all
three quartets are played
together, as they are
tonight, the combined
work is titled All in
One. About this
collection,
Gudmundsen-Holmgreenwrite
s:
'Some
years ago Kronos and the
vocal group Theatre of
Voices performed three
new pieces, which I had
written for the two
groups: one for Theatre
of Voices (Green), and
two for Kronos (New
Ground and No Ground).
They were played and sung
by each group
independently – but
also both groups together
concurrently, on top of
each other, as a final
gesture. The combined
pieces were called New
Ground Green and No
Ground
Green.
'David liked the idea
(and the result) of pairs
of quartets that could be
played both independently
and simultaneously, and
asked me if the vocal
quartet could be
transformed into a string
quartet. It could not. He
then asked me to repeat
the whole set-up with a
new pair of quartets,
adding also some
percussion instruments,
as was the case with
Green for Theatre of
Voices. Of course this
was tempting. Furthermore
David asked me to make
one of the two new
quartets a little easier
to play. 'I began to
work. The Kronos part of
the pair of quartets
turned out to be tough to
play, as David puts it.
Unfortunately the
‘easier’ one
was tough to play also!
So I had to write one
more, which was then a
little easier still (but
still not easy).
'The three new works can
be played separately and
on top of each other in
many different
combinations, resulting
in different kinds
of.

writes: Quartet No. 3
Motet was written in
1979, commissioned by the
Lerchenborg music-week of
1979 during which it was
first performed by
Quatuor Bernede. This
short one-movement
quartet is a kind of
modernization of the 14th
century French motets, a
cadeau to this weird and
fantastic music whose
abstract and almost
deprecatory, introvert
expression appears
unaccountably modern and
incredibly ancient at the
same time. Motet is a
sober, cool treatise on
rhythm and statics,
depicted in a Gothic,
crypt-like atmosphere.
The almost completely
non-vibrato movement is
suggestive of boys'
choir, monks'
processions, and the
piercing sound of musical
glasses. An ancient world
is reborn and becomes the
world of today.

Manfred
Trojahn on the origin and
title of his impressive
virtuoso solo
work: Admittedly I do
not know if he had
seagulls, but since
Mendelssohn was born in
Hamburg, he will not have
gone through life without
at least the impression
of the cry of seagulls.
Nor do I know if seagulls
played any part in his
life in Rome. I myself
was astonished when, one
or two years ago in the
Villa Massimo, I was, not
exactly annoyed but
disturbed by the strong
rhythmical cry of
seagulls. I was just
about to write a bassoon
solo when the seagulls
started. Then the
idea came to me that
precisely this sequence
of notes could serve as
the basis of the work.
And the sequence for the
bassoon solo is, in turn,
the basis of the piece
for violoncello - this is
how titles are born... Of
course the violoncello
meanders with virtuosic
ease from the seagull
motif to the 'elf-like'
skittering brought to
music by Mendelssohn and
used time and again in
his compositions, finally
becoming a cabaletta.
Now, cabalettas are not
very representative of
Mendelssohn, but as I was
composing I definitely
wanted to put a cabaletta
in this passage. I am
sure Mendelssohn and I
will easily agree on
this, especially since
later justice is done to
him in the rapid passages
and, of course in the
tonal cadenza at the very
end, which is more
indicative of his time
than of mine ... isn't
it?

In his
seventh string quartet,
the well-known Swiss
composer Rudolf
Kelterborn has achieved
something special in
terms of form: the title
and subtitle already
suggest that this quartet
plays with a
distinctively fragmented
inner structure. It is
highly appealing how the
succession of short
individual fragments
becomes a cohesive
one-movement
whole.
Both
performers and audience
encounter a skilful
dramaturgy enabling them
to experience the diverse
spectrum of expression
which this genre, steeped
in tradition, opens
up.

“Now
II†is the second
part of a triptych of
chamber pieces entitled
“Profiles of
Lightâ€. The first
part is written for solo
piano (Now I, BA 11073),
the second for
unaccompanied cello. The
two instruments are then
combined in the
concluding third part,
Uriel (BA
11013).
All three
pieces were inspired by
the Abstract
Expressionist paintings
of the American artist
Barnett Newman. Newman's
work has had a formative
impact on Matthias
Pintscher's artistic
philosophy: what does it
mean to reduce things to
essentials while seeking
maximum immediacy of
expression? Several of
Newman's paintings have a
radiant light of uncommon
intensity, yet resembling
a dark illumination. The
same sort of thing is
found in the late works
of Franz Schubert, where
a comparable profundity
and retrospective
yearning likewise shine
through the surface of
even the brightest
tonalities.
This
is a piece about
resonances, about the
inward and outward givens
of existence, about life
itself: 'I find the cello
a highly suitable
instrument for depicting
such existential
conditions'.

Kelterborn. In a folder.

SPIN is a three-movement
study in various meanings
of the word spin. I. Gyre
has the character of a
whimsically spinning
object in a sort of
arena. II. Web is
essentially a slow
movement. It explores a
nearly static, sinewy
texture comprised of
slowly undulating chords
in which snippets of
melody emerge from the
notes held while the
chords disappear. Similar
to the first movement,
III. Spiral explores a
kinetic notion of
spinning, this time in
the form of rapidly
rising scales. SPIN
was composed in early
1998. Each of the
work’s three
movements assumes the
task of exploring a
different meaning of the
title.The first movement,
Gyre (as in gyroscope),
has the character of a
whimsically spinning
object in a sort of arena
– spinning and
bouncing off the walls
(like a spinning penny,
which bounces off of an
object unpredictably and
with somewhat explosive
force). The primary
musical idea consists of
high harmonics in the
violins set against a
rocking pulse in the
lower strings. This basic
texture is explored in
various guises as the
movement progresses.Web
is essentially a slow
movement. It explores a
nearly static, sinewy
texture comprised of
slowly undulating chords.
Snippets of melody emerge
from the notes held while
the chords disappear. The
music intensifies,
leading to an expected
climax (or anti-climax)
of pizzicatos, before
returning to the opening
material and winding
gently to a close.Like
Gyre, the third movement,
Spiral, explores a
kinetic notion of
spinning, this time in
the form of rapidly
rising scales. The formal
idea of this movement,
however, has the
character of a spiral,
with its tendency toward
implosion.SPIN was
written for violinist
Baird Dodge.
