Cuarteto San
Petersburgo (The Saint
Petersburg Quartet) was
written between January
and March 2011. It owes
its name to the fact that
Saint Petersburg has been
a very significant city
for me. I was invited
there in 1988 to take
part in a big
contemporary music
festival, but my
uninterrupted bond with
the city started on 2002,
thanks to the
negotiations of my friend
and pupil Albert Barbeta.
Since then, I have
constantly travelled
there in order to record
a considerable part of my
repertoire: seventeen
pieces. In addition to
the concerts we went to,
I took the opportunity
during my trips to visit
the well-known
conservatoire where so
many great personalities
from the world of music
composition once taught,
and the place that
launched the most
important violin school
in the whole of Russia:
the school of Leopoldo
Auer. Spending a long
time in Auer's classroom
writing my concert for
violin and orchestra was
an unforgettable
experience for me. His
large portrait motivated
me even
further.
Cuartet
o San Petersburgo evokes
many of the most
cherished and moving
moments that I have had
in this city. It is
structured in four
movements. The first one,
Allegretto-Allegro, opens
with an introduction that
sets forth the two main
themes, amid a soft and
elastic atmosphere. The
Allegro starts vigorously
and in it we find changes
in the tempo and moments
of mystery, as well as
certain seclusion,
returning then to the
emphatic theme where the
counterpoint finds its
place. The movement ends
placidly.
The
Scherzo-marcato that
follows is marked by a
persistent rhythm of
triplets that carries on
from beginning to end.
The tempo does not
change, but brief and
decided themes are
introduced, as well as
passages of counterpoint.
Brief and dissonant
chords are heard
throughout the movement,
which ends
vigorously.
The
third movement, Ut, is a
very special one. For a
while already I had been
playing with the idea of
writing a movement that
was to have the tonality
C as a leitmotiv. This
one is made up by two
slow and static parts. In
the first one, the first
violin plays
pizzicatti-glissandi. In
the second, the first
violin and particularly
the violoncello settle on
C while the other two
instruments produce
descending chromatic
harmonies.
Final
ly, the
Introduccion-Presto (the
Introduction-Presto). It
starts with some bucolic
passages which remind us
of the introduction to
the first movement. A
fast and energetic Presto
suddenly erupts. A kind
of moto perpetuo which
alternates with two
expressive passages and,
towards the end, a viola
and violoncello tremolo,
all of great mystery and
expectation, make way for
a resounding finale
marcato. $38.95 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 4 to 6 weeks | | |

English. String
Quartet No.4 was composed
by Hans Abrahamsen in
2012. Commissioned by
Westdeutscher Rundfunk
and Wigmore Hall For the
Arditti Quartet.
Programme note: The basic
idea for my Fourth String
Quartet was very clear to
me: It should be quiet
and soft music or to put
it in a german term: hoch
im Himmel gesungen ...
(â€High singing in
heaven…â€).
Each of the four
movements has a different
scordatura/pitch. The
first movement begins
like my work
â€Schneeâ€
sky-high with an airy and
soft melody by the first
violin. The second
movement is fast and
â€movement and
joyâ€-like. It
consists of two duets and
a reverse style
counterpoint. While the
sections were
progressively longerin
the first movement they
are getting shorter and
shorter in the second.
â€Dark, heavy and
earthy†is the
third movement and its
pizzicato recalls big
black raindrops falling
to the ground. It is the
dark and grainy
counterpart to the first
movement whereas the
fourth movement
corresponds to the
second. The fourth
movement was planned as a
dark and heavy
counterpart but it turned
out to be like
â€babblingâ€
music of a child. My
Fourth String Quartet has
become in its way a
serene and cool piece. So
the Quartet has been
finished luckyly after
twenty years it was
already in 1990 that I
was commissioned by
Wittener Tage für Neue
Musik to write the piece
for Arditti Quartet. Hans

optional third violin for

introduction the theme is
presented in a straight
forward ensemble
harmonization with some
altered pitches. The next
section places the melody
in the viola line with
opposing lines in the
violins. The ensuing
section now gives the
tune to the second violin
with contrapuntal action
in the other voices. A
chorus section is now
more articulated and
active until the tune is
handed to the first
violin with ever more
moving counterpoint in
the other voices. The
piece then ends in a
strong
statement.

English
comments: A Bach for
string quartet is another
evocation of the past, in
this case of J.S. Bach's
works for violin. Written
in 2004, it is a
recreation of two of the
most important movements
in the series of Sonatas
and Partitas: The Adagio
of the third Sonata and
the Prelude of the third
Partita (BWV 1005 and
1006, respectively).
Jordi Cervello was a
violinist and, as such,
it should come as no
surprise that he once
again makes use of
compositions written for
his instrument. The
Adagio, here in common
time (the original by
Bach is in three-four
time), keeps up the
constant rhythmic figure
of the dotted quaver and
semi-quaver throughout
the movement, with a
calmness that is shrouded
in mystery. The second
movement, Preludiando,
retains the same lively
spirit as the original,
but explores different
moods. Moments of calm,
vigour and even some
dramatic points give it a
new dimension thanks to
the fact that it is
written for a quartet and
to Cervello's original
treatment of harmony and
counterpoint.
Co
mentarios del

cuarteto de cuerda es
otra evocacion del

la obra para violin de
J.S. Bach. Escrita el ano
2004, se trata de una

movimientos mas
importantes de la serie
de Sonatas y Partitas: El
Adagio de la tercera
Sonata y el Preludio de
la tercera Partita (BWV
1005 y 1006
respectivamente). Jordi
Cervello fue violinista
y, como tal, no debe
sorprender que una vez
mas se sirva de material
compositivo procedente de
su instrumento. El
Adagio, aqui en compas de
cuatro (el original de
Bach es de tres) conserva
en todo el movimiento la
constante figura ritmica
de corchea con puntillo y
semicorchea, dentro de un
clima sereno pero rodeado
de misterio. El segundo
movimiento, Preludiando,
conserva el mismo
espiritu vivo del
original, pero
recorriendo diferentes
estados de animo.
Momentos de calma, de
vigor e incluso
dramaticos dan nueva
dimension gracias a la
escritura cuartetistica y
al original tratamiento
armonico y
contrapuntistico de
Cervello. A Bach se
estreno en La Pedrera de
Barcelona dentro del
ciclo Celebracions de la
Fundacio Caixa de

30 years, the
Philadelphia Chamber
Music Society
commissioned a work of
20-25 minutes for violin
and piano from James
Primosch, University of
Pennsylvania professor of
music. Primosch had
originally thought to
create a new sonata, but
what developed is more
appropriately a set of
five character pieces,
two of which were
directly inspired by
poems. Five Poems was
premiered in May, 2016,
and Primosch's thoughts
are recorded at his
website:
https://jamesprimosch.com
/2016/05/10/five-poems-pr
emiere/. Upon
receiving a commission
from the Philadelphia
Chamber MusicSociety for
a violin and piano piece
in honor of its 30th
anniversary, myplan was
to write a sonata, a term
suggesting a relatively
abstractdiscourse. But as
the piece developed, the
movements struck me
ascharacter pieces rather
than music employing a
more
“symphonicâ€ap
proach. When specific
poems started to attach
themselves in my mindwith
two of the movements, the
overall title Five Poems
became clear.The title of
the second movement is a
line from Susan
Stewart’s“De
scentâ€, which deals
with Aeneas’s
visit to the underworld.
The musicis alternately
fiercely driving and
quite still, though
tense.
RobertFrost’s
Nothing Gold Can Stay
summons fleet scale
passages framinglyrical
counterpoint. The
remaining movements do
not refer to
specificpoems, but have
titles reflecting their
expressive tone.
Dreamscape ismusing with
an improvisatory violin
line over shifting pairs
of pianochords. Nightsong
is a bluesy lullaby that
turns highly
dramatic.Vision begins
with a closely argued
struggle but breaks
through tosomething
spacious and clear. $33.99 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 2 to 3 weeks | | |
