16.5 x 11.5
inches. Gran Torso,
for string quartet, was
composed in 1971 and
revised in 1978. It
belongs to a series of
works, including Air,
Kontrakadenz, Pression
and Klangschatten, whose
concept of material
attempts to free itself
from convention. That is,
instead of using the
sound itself as a point
of departure, structural
and formal hierarchies
are derived from the
mechanical and physical
conditions present during
the process of sound
production. It is clear
that such a radical break
with tradition is not
easily achieved: the
instrument, the given
means, the resonating
body itself (as the
embodiment of convention)
all work against such
attempts (with the
extended performance
techniques representing
only the tip of the
iceberg of deep-seated
contradictions where the
bourgeois artist is
concerned). Implicit in
such a challenge,
however, is a claim to
aesthetic pregnance: an
offer, if one would have
it, of uncomprosing
beauty.(Helmut

x 12 inches. I fell
in love with the
remarkable singing of the
Tenores di Bitti on
hearing their recordings
as a student. Their
uniquely intense vocal
timbre, their harmony,
which seemed pure and
rough at once, and the
sense that this music
was, at root, not so much
about performance as
simply being together in
the world, in a community
of spirit. At the time, I
had no intention of using
this music to my own
creative ends, but now,
here we are: Sardinian
Songbook is the second in
a cycle of works for the
Ligeti Quartet, all based
on transcriptions of
music from different
throat-singing
traditions. Like string
quartets, the tenores
usually sing in groups of
four voices, but being
free from instruments
they stand very close
together enabling the
resonances of their
voices to blend and
interact in a special
way. The quartet, of
course, can only sit so
close before their bows
clash, so I have chosen
instead to reflect this
physical closeness
inversely, by getting the
players to stand
increasingly far from one
another as the piece
progresses. In so doing,
the initial state of
sonic blend gives way to
hocketing lines, opening
up the sense of
space.Christian Mason,
2018 The four movements
may be played separately
or as a collection. If
played together the
following order should be
observed (see table of
contents).
