With
serious string players
this Latvian composer has
long been recognized
because of his sonorous
tonal concepts and his
modal, occasionally
aleatoric idiom. Works
like 'Cantabile per
Archi' or 'Musica
dolorosa' are already
quite well-known, but
newer pieces like the
violin concerto with
string orchestra 'Fernes
Licht', commissioned by
Gidon Kremer for his
Kremerata Baltica, are
also gaining wide
international exposure.
The genre of the string
quartet is well
represented in Vasks'
output. The 2nd string
quartet 'Summer Tunes'
(ED 8512) has been
published for some time
and the 3rd was premiered
by the Kronos Quartet who
were so enthused that
they commissioned a 4th
quartet. In 1996,
prompted by a complete
recording of all his
string quartets by the
Miami String Quartet for
Conifer Records Vasks
totally revised his early
1st string quartet 1996,
it is here presented for
the first time in a
printed edition.

The
Second and Third Quartets
were conceived at the
same time; indeed, their
composition intermingled,
over half of No. 3 being
sketched before No. 2 was
completed. Accordingly,
they share similar
material but, like the
intertwining blood of
cousins, their natures
differ: No. 2 being
somewhat acerbic and
declamatory, No. 3 more
lyric and gentler. An
annunicatory 'leaping
motive' (derived from a
motto generated by my
name) opens Quartet No. 2
and inhabits the course
of the piece as a
cyclical binding-force. A
five-note motive, usually
very deliberate, also
keeps recurring like an
insistent caller. All
three movements are based
on tonal centers (I on B
and E, II on D, III on C)
and the harmonic
'grammar' spoken tends to
recall the jazz world of
my youth. To hopefully
achieve a certain
classical ambience was
one of the goals of this
piece, and all three
movements have
traditional forms. The
first movement is a
modified Sonata-Allegro
design, with a
severely-truncated
recapitulation balanced
by a lengthy, and
decaying Coda. The second
movement is a set of
strophic variants and an
epilogue interspersed
with both solo ritornelli
and first-movement
material (the motto and
the five-note motive) in
the nature of a
fantasia-like
'call-and-response.' It
is dedicated to the
memory of the American
mezzo-soprano Jan
DeGaetani. The third
movement is a modified
Rondo (ABACBA) which
evolves out of the
opening motto. All three
movements make much use
of canonic stretti,
similar gestures, and
repetition. For example,
the climax of movement
III's Rondo throws the
first movement back at us
again, as if the players
were reluctant to let it
go, so that the entire
piece could perhaps be
viewed as a single large,
extended, Sonata
movement, with
introduction and
Coda. The Second and
Third Quartets were
conceived at the same
time; indeed, their
composition intermingled,
