Description
A fiery and expressive movement in a neo-classical style. A piece that is both modern sounding and accessible to audiences - think Bach meets Prokofiev.
The Quartet #1 consists of three movements each with two melodies. The two melodies' materials are the same in each movement, but cleverly and almost imperceptively altered.
Have a listen to the excerpt from the fugal development.
A challenge for both professional performers and ambitious hobbyists.
