Pro
gramme Note During the
composition of my tenth
string quartet a
flower-name, host-tidlos,
came to my mind - and it
would not me leave again.
[hosttidlos is actually
autumn crocus in English,
but the composer prefers
harvest-timeless, to
maintain some of the
associations of the
Danish flower-name, red.]
The paradoxical union of
a seasonal time (harvest)
and no-time-at-all was a
good fit to the sections
of the work that I had
composed at that time,
and I decided to
tentatively stick to that
title for the
work-in-progress, and
now, having finished the
piece, I can say that is
is still a fitting title
- and it stands. Enough
about the title, I will
go on to describe
themusic, a somewhat more
precarious project. My
tenth string quartet is
probably the most basic
string quartet that I
have composed:
melodically - and in
sound - it employs the
naturally based overtones
and undertones (perceived
at major and minor,
respectively), and
rhythmically it is based
on growth, on the
principles of the Golden
Section, and the
structure itself
contrasts abundance and
exuberance with sections
of immobility and
contemplation. However,
Melos, melody, is
definitely the dominating
aspect of my STRING
QUARTET NO. 10: behind
even the most
rhythmically complex or
pure sonoric sections
lies a firm - if hidden -
basis of melodic or
polyphonic ideas. The
work was composed in
2004-2005 for the Kroger
Quartet.

Parts for String Quartet
No.3 'Angel's Music' by
Bent Sorensen (1988)
Premiered by the Arditti
String Quartet at the
Danish Radio Concert Hall
16 November 1988. Score
available: KP00250 The
composer writes: 'Even
when I was writing Adieu,
I knew that I wished to
write Angels Music. The
title existed in an
incomplete form in my
mind and gradually more
and more ideas and a few
outlines became clear.
The actual work on Angels
Music was started in
Rome, where I spent the
autumn of 1987 staying at
The Danish Academy.
Whether this stay has
influenced the quartet or
not is impossible to say.
however, it is true to
say that, in the Roman
churches I visited, I saw
countless angels playing
in the top of frescoes
and altars. Without these
angels, together with the
many crackled-gold
paintings in this city
and my general
fascination with the
Italian renaissance
painter Fra Angelico, (in
fact there are only a few
paintings by him in Rome,
but even his name..!) I
am not sure my quartet
would have been what it
is. Anyway I do feel that
there is a bit of Italy
in the piece. The angels
apart there are, in the
short rhythmic agitating
part of the quartet,
reminiscences of the
Italian medieval Trotto
dance, and in the most
expressive part ofthe
piece there are flashes
of Puccini-like music.
From the very beginning
of my work on the
quartet, the distant,
extremely muted sound in
the high register which
opens the piece, was on
my mind. A sound satiated
with a dense heterophonic
and polyphonic texture of
elegiac melody and
vibrating trills. I
imagined that little
songs (maybe angel songs)
could be created in this
density, these songs
constantly echoing
themselves. Gradually as
this sound got a more and
more concrete musical and
instrumental form, I
felt, that not only
should the little songs
be created, played and
die out in an echo, but
also that the general
pattern of the quartet
should give the feeling
of music which, from the
distance, is getting
closer and closer,
culminates and at last
disappears like an echo.
Related to this, the
general pattern of Angels
Music is divided into
three: a pre-echo,
culmination and echo..
The relationship between
the three part is 5: 6:
4. The reason why I can
say this precisely and
prosaically is that it
was necessary to me to
mark the overall
guidelines before I
started to compose. I had
to do this in order to
enable the relationships
to crawl from the small
cells into the general
pattern.'
