Hans Winterberg’s Fourth String Quartet, composed in 1961, emerged during a turbulent period of doubt and uncertainty. As a younger generation of European composers broke sharply with tradition, Winterberg—himself a Shoah survivor—chose instead to preserve and renew the Czech-German-Jewish cultural synthesis that had shaped him. This work marks the start of a new creative phase, uniting Bohemian-Moravian folk influences in the lineage of Jan�ček with the modernist techniques of the Second Viennese School, learned from his teacher Zemlinsky. The result is a cohesive, rhythmically incisive, and powerfully expressive style that stands apart from the radical shifts of its time.

This edition is published in a study score format.
