Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. String Quartet no. 2 pushes the limits of polytonality and extended harmonies. This three movement work would be comparable to the Bartok quartets, although quite different. Tonality is pushed to its limits through the use of 2 or more harmonies played simultaneously. This is a highly rhythmic string quartet based off the composer's percussion background. Duration: 14 minutes This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. String Quartet no. 1 has strong roots in neo-Romanticism, while pushing the limits of polytonality and extended harmonies. This four movement work displays the expressive quality and aggressive side of the string instruments in the ensemble. The composition is in f minor and uses a harmonic progression of i-vii-V-i, which also extends to the tonal areas of the 4 movements. Although some traditional harmonic elements are used, tonality is pushed to its limits through the use of 2 or more harmonies played simultaneously. This is a highly rhythmic string quartet based off the composer's percussion background. Duration: 19 minutes This item is printed on demand.
