one's own
mind.

Lasting 27
minutes, Kalevi
Aho’s String
quartet no. 4 (2021) is
in four movements. The
first, Nocturne, begins
with a hazily muted
melody dominated by the
interval of a minor third
on the second violin.
Though the first movement
begins in nocturnal mood,
there is also some more
forceful music around the
middle. The second
movement, Allegro
capriccioso, is quick
with quirky rhythms. At
times tempestuous, it
faces the players with
the biggest technical and
virtuoso challenges. The
following Largo is slow.
A couple of times in the
first half it is
dominated by soft,
mysterious harmonies. The
tempo marking of the
virtuosic closing
movement is Presto,
leggiore. The movement
begins with quick,
flickering,
will-o’-the-wisp-l
ike music. It later
builds up to an extremely
violent climax dominated
by tremolo figures on the
second violin and thick
chords on the other
instruments. The
flickering music of the
beginning returns at the
end, before dissolving
into silence.
This
product includes the full
score (A4) and the parts
(B4).

This
humorous little vignette
for string quartet was
composed in 1979 and was
originally intended to be
published by Piedmont
Music, the ASCAP division
of EB Marks Classical.
For reasons unknown,
however, it remained in
manuscript form until
2021, when a copy of the
composer's autograph
parts was discovered in
the archives of a
completely different Alan
Shulman piece. This newly
engraved Latham Music
edition therefore
represents the first
publication of Shulman's
delightful work, as well
as the first full score.
As the title suggests,
this is a medium-slow
rag, or cakewalk in a
loose AABA form. The
bluesy and graceful main
melody is introduced by
the first violin in a
call and response
exchange with the rest of
the ensemble. The
restatement of the
primary theme is led by
the second violin, with
the entire ensemble
playing pizzicato, having
the effect of playful
mockery. In the B
section, the first violin
earnestly reasserts the
stately grace from the
opening however, the
cello is clearly becoming
restless and decides to
take over the lead just
before the final reprise.
The lighthearted ending
again has the first
violin doing its best to
bring the tune to a
refined conclusion, but
the rest of the group
still has mischief in
mind. After a couple
moments of seeming
confusion, the ensemble
regroups at last and
plays the final riff with
resolute emphasis. If
you're looking to add a
light moment to a recital
program, or looking for a
short, medium level
contest piece that
players and audiences
alike will enjoy, this
little miniature is an
ideal choice!
