Moon River was written especially for Audrey Hepburn to sing and originally featured on the soundtrack for the movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s. The song has been covered by many other artists and has remained well-known for many years. This love song to a river also makes a wonderful instrumental work, especially so on stringed instruments. Nico Dezaire’s sensitive arrangement for string quartet gives each member of the ensemble the opportunity to play the wistful melody.

Het speciaal voor Audrey Hepburn geschreven nummer Moon River maakte oorspronkelijk deel uit van de soundtrack voor de film Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Al snel werd het echter door vele zangers en zangeressen gecoverd en ontpopte het zich blijvend tot een wereldwijde hit. Dit liefdesliedje voor een rivier is ook een heerlijk instrumentaal werkje, vooral voor strijkinstrumenten. Nico Dezaires gevoelige arrangement voor strijkkwartet geeft elk lid van het ensemble de gelegenheid om de weemoedige melodie te spelen.

Moon River war ursprünglich Teil des Soundtracks zum Hollywood-Klassiker Breakfast at Tiffany's und der jungen Audrey Hepburn auf den Leib geschrieben. Schon bald wurde der Song von zahlreichen Sängern gecovert und trat so seinen Siegeszug um die Welt an, der bis heute anhält. Diese musikalische Liebeserklärung an einen Fluss lässt sich natürlich auch bestens instrumental darstellen, besonders schön auf Streichinstrumenten. Nico Dezaire lässt in seinem einfühlsamen Arrangement für Streichquartett jeden der vier Musiker an der sehnsuchtsvollen Melodie teilhaben.

Moon River a été écrit spécialement pour Audrey Hepburn et figure sur la bande originale du film Diamants sur canapé. Peu après, la chanson s’est vue reprise par de nombreux artistes, et est ainsi devenue le succès mondial qu’elle reste toujours. Cette chanson d’amour pour une rivière se prête aussi une interprétation instrumentale, particulièrement par des instruments cordes. Cet arrangement délicat de Nico Dezaire pour quatuor cordes permet chaque membre de l’ensemble de jouer la mélodie mélancolique.

Cica da larvae live underground for years, creeping about slowly and peacefully in the darkness until that sudden, beautiful brief moment when, one warm, damp summer’s eve, they emerge, metamorphosed into a highly mobile life form. Gaily they dance in the sunshine, singing ardently to the trees in all their greenery --- but only for a short while, for, just as suddenly, they are gone. The same process repeats year upon year. The life cycle of this string quartet resembles that of the cicada. Initially, two embryonic cells remain hidden within dense, gloomy note-clusters; over time they evolve into buds, grow and then blossom. They appear for the first time in their adult form in the fast middle section, where they assume the shape of two very popular Chinese folk melodies, Jasmine and Old Six Blows, albeit in wholly chromaticized and defamiliarized variants. After their grand efflorescence, these forms gradually dissolve into transparent wisps of sound.

Reviewers, trying to find a label for Godfrey's music, will compare him to Debussy, Ravel, Stravinsky, even Barber, using words such as lyrical, lush, and always tonal and melodic. 2004 saw the release of an all-Godfrey CD, including String Quartet No. 2, by the Cassatt String Quartet, an album that the New Yorker hailed as one of the 10 best of that year. Formerly available only on a rental basis, String Quartet No. 2 is now available for sale. Real sensual warmth, with a touch of the sensibility of Schoenberg's Transfigured Nightà These very touching works are completely tonal and basically pick up from the point where music was derailed some four score years ago... It is remarkable that music like this is being written, recorded, and widely celebrated. Robert Reilly, Surprised by Beauty: A Listener's Guide to the Recovery of Modern Music (Ignatius Press).

‘Bella Ciao’ originated as an Italian folk song, stemming all the way from the late 19th century. Many versions have since appeared over the years, but the song now has a new lease of life owing to a new dance adaption as well as its feature as the theme for the Netflix series La Casa de Papel, which has inspired Anthony Gröger to create this dynamic arrangement for string quartet.

‘Be lla Ciao’ is van oorsprong een aansprekend Italiaans volksliedje uit het einde van de 19e eeuw waar in de loop der tijd vele versies van zijn gemaakt. Nu heeft het nieuw leven ingeblazen gekregen in een dancevariant én als themasong bij de Netflixserie La Casa de Papel. Naar aanleiding daarvan creëerde Anthony Gröger dit levendige arrangement voor strijkkwartet.

Im Laufe der Jahrzehnte sind zahlreiche Versionen erschienen; in jüngster Zeit ist das Lied durch eine neue Tanzadaption und die Verwendung als Thema für die Netflix-Serie La casa de papel (Haus des Geldes“) wieder aufgelebt. Das wiederum hat Anthony Gröger dazu inspiriert, dieses neue dynamische Arrangement für Streichquartett zu schreiben.
