Gran Torso,
for string quartet, was
composed in 1971 and
revised in 1978. It
belongs to a series of
works, including Air,
Kontrakadenz, Pression
and Klangschatten, whose
concept of material
attempts to free itself
from convention. That is,
instead of using the
sound itself as a point
of departure, structural
and formal hierarchies
are derived from the
mechanical and physical
conditions present during
the process of sound
production. It is clear
that such a radical break
with tradition is not
easily achieved: the
instrument, the given
means, the resonating
body itself (as the
embodiment of convention)
all work against such
attempts (with the
extended performance
techniques representing
only the tip of the
iceberg of deep-seated
contradictions where the
bourgeois artist is
concerned). Implicit in
such a challenge,
however, is a claim to
aesthetic pregnance: an
offer, if one would have
it, of uncomprosing
beauty.(Helmut

With
this edition, Schott
publishes the early
two-movement string
quartet by Bernd Alois
Zimmermann for the first
time. In a letter the
composer wrote: 'I am
still messing around with
my quartet. This probably
is the most concentrated
work of composition - and
the most abstract.'The
string quartet belongs
within the context of his
early works which
focussed on chamber
music, unlike those of
later years. Until 1945,
he created a number of
piano pieces and songs, a
Suite for Violin and
Piano as well as a String
Trio (ED 7563).
