String Quartett
Total time 76:57, DDD, Barcode: 752156016724
The string quartet has a special place in classical music,
second in importance among ensembles only to the orchestra.The
string quartet repertoire is rich, ranging from the 18th and
19th century Classicists and RomanticsùHaydn, Mozart,
Beethoven, and Schubert most prominentlyùto Modernists of the
past centuryùBartok, Shostakovich, and Milhaud among the most
prolific and respected. Even iconoclasts like Sch÷nberg, Berg,
Babbitt, and Carter confirmed a connection to the tradition
and created works which adhered to the formal logic and
dramatic ambience of those of their predecessors while
incorporating their own compositional procedures. But there
have been exceptions as well, extremist composers who rejected
the genre outright, or distorted it beyond recognition. Morton
Feldman fits into the latter category...or does he? ù Art

thus not dupe of the second string quartet of which there have
been several releases.
