Mother
Teresa was happy to
surprise her
interlocutors by handing
them a small card instead
of a traditional business
card, on which a short
text was to be read,
beginning with the line
“The fruit of
silence is prayer.â€
In 2013, Peteris Vasks
set this peace prayer of
Mother Teresa on behalf
of the Schleswig-Holstein
Music Festival for mixed
choir a cappella in the
form of a dense elegiac
sound stream. The
versions for piano
quintet and string
quartet now make this
musical expression of
Mother Teresa's words
accessible to two
traditional genres of
chamber music without the
help of a choir.

The
composer Johanna Senfter
(1879 1961) from
Oppenheim concerned
herself with chamber
music for strings all her
life, even studied violin
in Frankfurt herself. Max
Reger then gave her
lessons in Leipzig, first
privately, then in his
composition class at the
conservatoire and valued
her 'extraordinary
compositional talent'.
The strict teacher more
and more became a
committed promoter of the
works by Johanna Senfter.
For a period of 50 years,
the composer concerned
herself with the string
quartet genre, from
Quartet No. 1 in D minor
Op. 4, composed shortly
after the turn of the
century, to the sixth and
last Quartet in C minor
Op. 115 which was
performed for the first
time in 1960, one year
before her death. The
Quartet in F sharp minor
Op. 28 is her second
quartet which was
premiered in Darmstadt on
5 November 1922. In this
work, as in later works,
Senfter combined
traditional form models -
here Baroque movements
like gavotte, saraband,
gigue - with expressive,
late Romantic musical
language. The work,
consisting of six short
movements, may without
doubt be regarded as a
valuable addition to the
quartet repertoire.

The
First String Quartet in C
major, Op. 37, was
written in the autumn of
1917 and earned
Szymanowski the first
prize in a competition
organized by the Ministry
of Religious and in a
competition organized by
the Ministry of Religious
and Educational Affairs
in January 1922. The
First String Quartet is
notable for its clar and
simple construction. The
first movement is in the
formof a sonata allegro;
the Andantino semplice
(in modo iuna canzone) in
the middle is a cross
between ternary and
variation form. The final
Scherzando alla burlesca
also keeps to the form of
a sonata allegro. The
combinations and
proportions of formal
factors and the treatment
of thematic material
betray a fairly
conventional adoption of
classical models.
Similarly, the expressive
and structural use of
melodic material shows a
respect for traditional
norms. Szymanowski
created, in other works
from the same period, his
own individual type of
melodic line, which was
strongly expressive and
achieved its effect
chiefly by its tonal
qualieties; nevertheless
in this Quartet he
returns to a fluid,
cantilena-like,
symmetrically shaped
melodic line, which runs
along in broad phrases of
a concentrated,
reflective character.
Melody becomes the chief
factor in the development
of the form, both in
thematic usage and in the
application of a more
polyphonic texture.
Harmonic and tonal means
are considerably
simplified in the Quartet
[]. Most of the writing
is linear, or horizontal,
with individual treatment
of each part, the
parallel continuation of
the four sound planes,
almost a matter of
principle. The functions
of the particular
instruments in realizing
these planes are
constantly changing,which
accounts for the even
greater variedy of
tone-colour. The decision
to forego experiment with
forms and sonorities is
reflectedin the overall
approach to musical
expression. The
predominant atmosphere of
restrained emotion, quiet
lyricism and serenity is
strongly suggestive of
classical aestetic
models. (Based on Zofia
Helman Commentary on
Szymanowski Complete
Edition, Vol. B6) (II)
The ''Second String
Quartet'' represents an
interesting attempt to
revert to classical form
coupled with the new
harmonic and tonal
vocabulary worked out
previously in the
''Slopiewnie'', ''Stabat
Mater'' and ''Mazurkas''.
It was also the first
time the composer had
used folk elements in the
framework of a major
classical form. The
''Second String Quartet''
is in a special category
among Szymanowski's
works. Though it dates
from the composer was
still occupied with folk
music, it nevertheless
shows him returning to
classical models, but at
the same time using an
aesthetic of subjective
expression, which gives
the work its own
individual stamp. The
''Second String Quartet''
synthesis of the various
directions in which
Szymanowski was
attempting to develop.

Three
Little Nocturnes was
composed by Hans
Abrahamsen in 2005.
Commissioned by the
Cikada Ensemble, with
support from NOMUS, and
written for Frode Haltli
and the Cikada String
Quartet. Programme Note:
In the first nocturne a
slow, falling music
emerges on an irregular
pulse, filled with high
harmonics in the strings.
The second nocturne is
fast and unrestful music,
with a lot of passion,
which in a moment runs
into a glimpse of a
tango. In this movement
the accordion is employed
in its traditional
fashion, using the chord
bass, with its
“oom-pah-pahâ€
standard chords. The
third nocturne is again
slow, indeed very slow,
and it has German tempo
and expression markings.
Thepiece ends with a
lullaby in the accordion,
played with an unusual
technique, imitating the
string portato. This is
accompanied by high
harmonics in the strings,
while the first violin
slowly and softly plays a
melody from the second
nocturne. Hans
Abrahamsen.
