String Quartet String Quartet - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1028773 Composed by L.J Harding. Contemporary. Score and parts. 6 pages. L.J Harding #3921145. Published by L.J Harding (A0.1028773). â€˜From Flutter to Flightâ€™ is a String Quartet featuring sequencing, imitation, dynamics and a wide exploration of range. The reason I chose the name â€˜From Flutter to Flightâ€™ was because of the inspiration I gained while composing this piece. The story of a birdâ€™s first experience of flight is something that is beautiful, however awkward it may be. The start of the piece, with the duet between Violin 1 & 2, symbolises young birds watching as their parents fly in a dance. The theme is then developed into a four part. The rhythmic pattern in the Viola part represents the fluttering and awkwardness of the young birds as they attempt to fly while the duet between the Violins is maintained and complemented by low notes from the Cello. This represents the birds as they finally begin to learn and begin flying faster and stronger. This swiftly follows by descending thirds on the Cello leading to a four-broken chord progression which creates a sense of adventure and willingness to advance forward. Violin comes in alongside the Cello as the younger birds begin to get more confident. The notes move with the movement of the birds, higher notes representing them flying higher whereas lower notes representing them flying lower. The second theme is then developed with the first theme being played in Violin 2 as a gentle reminder of the birds past and how far they have come. This ends with the return of the first theme in recapitulation followed with some new ideas including a much higher range in Violins 1 & 2 and it closes with the tonic 7th chord to symbolise an ending with the birds finally achieving flight.
