g Quartet Score and Parts
for 10/5333L Marty Parks
uses the beloved COVENTRY
CAROL as the basis for
his original lyric: Your
humble birth, Your
matchless worth; Jesus,
God with us. No earthly
crown, no great renown;
Jesus, God with us.
Redeemer King, of whom
angels sing; Jesus, God
with us. Equally
inspiring with piano
accompaniment or the
optional string quartet,
this is a stunning
addition to Christmas
worship or concert
repertoire.

Richard
Reed Parry 's Quartet For
Heart And Breath is an
innovative and original
piece based on the
performers' own bodily
rhythms. This sheet music
is for String Quartet
(Violin/Violin/Viola/Cell
o). Richard Reed Parry is
familiarto millions as
the lead singer of rock
band Arcade Fire, yet his
foray into classical
music is equally worthy
of attention. Quartet For
Heart And Breath is an
experiment into using the
performers' heartbeats
and breathing to dictate
the tempo. The performers
are instructed to wear
stethoscopes in order to
listen to their
heartbeats closely, while
one complete breath
corresponds to one bar
and two heartbeats equal
two crotchets. The result
is a quiet and subtle
piece, as each instrument
has to play softly so as
to be able to keep in
time. The piece also has
a naturally occurring
dynamism in that the
players' heart rates
constantly change as the
performance goes on, with
each instrument falling
in and out of sync
sometimes culminating in
a beautiful moment of all
heartbeats matching each
other. Interestingly,
this unique aspect means
that no performance will
ever be the same, meaning
to hear or play this
composition will be a
truly once in a lifetime
experience. Quartet For
Heart And Breath is a
superbly one-of-a-kind
composition by Richard
Reed Parry . Commissioned
by the Kronos Quartet,
this piece makes for a
wonderfully distinctive
performance, with
fascinating implications
for the connection
between the music and the
body.
