Tosh
io Hosokawa's works have
had a flower as their
theme for a long time,
and recently the image of
a lotus has dominated his
composing. Blossoming was
inspired by this image.
Hosokawa says:The lotus
sends its roots deep into
the mud beneath the
surface of the pond; the
stem stretches through
the water toward the
surface and the sky; the
bud is blossoming toward
the morning sunshine.
This work is a very
beautiful quartet with a
fantastic soundworld.

The
term
‘freygish’
is typically found in
klezmer music but derives
from a much older
cantorial mode, also
known under several other
titles including the
Ahava Rabbah mode, the
Mode of Supplication, and
Altered Phrygian mode. It
is used for the setting
of ‘Ahava
Rabbah’, or
‘abounding
love’, the
Ashkenazi prayer and
blessing sung during the
synagogue morning
services. When performed,
either in synagogue or in
a klezmer setting, the
mode can be developed
into a variety of short
phrases and melodic
forms. Jeremy Arden has
taken this beautiful
irregular scale and
filtered its melodic
forms through my own
musical sensibilities to
create a dialogue between
Jewish musical traditions
and the western musical
canon, expressed here
through the rigorous
crucible of the string
quartet.
